This is a great fall recipe! My daughter (who has a busy life style in NYC) introduced this recipe to me a couple years ago when she started a Paleo diet plan. It's quick and easy to put together in the crock pot or slow cooker, makes your kitchen smell wonderful, and is absolutely delicious! Once the pork is shredded, you may serve any way you wish - simply on a plate with some roasted veggies or potatoes for a side dish, or serve it up on buns for sandwiches.
