Combine all spices and the cocoa in a small bowl and season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Rub the spice mix all over the pork shoulder and transfer to a 5 or 6-quart slow cooker crock.
Add the organic chicken broth to the crock pot and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6.
Once the cooking time is complete, use two forks to pull the pork apart while it is still in the slow cooker crock. Allow the pulled pork to remain in the juices with the slow cooker set to “warm” for 20-30 minutes to absorb more flavor.
To serve, fill each lettuce leaf with some crunchy keto broccoli slaw and top with some pulled pork.
Notes
Layered Flavors: For a slow cooker recipe, layering flavors is key. Start by browning meats or sautéing aromatics before transferring them to the slow cooker. This extra step enhances the depth of flavor in your dish.Timing is Everything: Not all ingredients cook at the same rate in a slow cooker. Add delicate veggies like peas or herbs closer to the end of the cooking time to maintain their freshness and vibrant color. This ensures each element of your dish is perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor.Pork Roast: You can also use leftover pork roast to make pulled pork from pork loin roast or pork shoulder roast.
