Steps
Place the onion in the bottom of the slow cooker and set the roast on top. Season with spices. Rub the spices all over the pork. Pour Dr Pepper over the pork and cover with the lid.
Cook on LOW for 4-5 hours, adding about 30 minutes for each additional pound if you're multiplying the recipe.
When the meat can be easily pulled apart, shred the pork with tongs and allow the shredded pork to rest in the cooking liquids until ready to serve. Add barbecue sauce to taste and serve warm.
