Ingredients

1/4 cup paprika
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground white pepper
2 teaspoons ground chipotle pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pork shoulder or butt (4-5 pounds), cut crosswise in half
2 large onions, sliced
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
Kosher salt

Steps:

In a bowl large enough to hold the pork, combine the paprika, sugar, cumin, chili, oregano, and all the peppers. Thoroughly coat the pork with this dry rub. Transfer the pork to a Baggie, add all the dry rub, coat the pork again briefly, and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours. Cover the bottom of a slow cooker with half of the onions and garlic. Add the water and vinegar, then the pork and a good pinch of salt. Top with the remaining onions, garlic, and a little more salt. Cover and cook on low heat for about 12 hours. When the pork is cooked, spoon out the liquid fat and shred the pork.
