Place all liquid and spices in a large freezer and mix well. Add the pork shoulder and marinate overnight in the fridge.
2
Place all contents of bag into slow cooker and set on low for 6 hours, or high for 4 hours.

Once done, remove meat from slow cooker to a large bowl, allow to cool about 15 minutes before shredding. Pour the liquid in the slow cooker into a large measuring cup or bowl and allow to sit until the fat separates from the juices, then skim off fat and discard, reserve remaining juices to add to the shredded meat.

To shred the meat, take two forks and press and pull the meat apart following the grain until it is all shredded. Remove any fat pieces and discard. Add the skimmed juices back into the meat and stir well to combine.

To make the apple slaw combine all the liquid ingredients in a measuring cup and whisk well. Pour over shredded cabbage and apples and stir to combine, keep refrigerated until ready to use.
