- Begin by cutting the pork shoulder into large chunks and place it in your slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl, mix orange juice, lime juice, chicken broth, garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring every piece is coated, then add the onion and bay leaves.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until tender and easily shreddable.
- Remove the pork, shred it with forks, and broil on a baking sheet for 3 to 5 minutes until crispy.
