- 3 to 4 lb pork shoulder bone-in or boneless
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/8 tsp salt plus more to taste
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 1 to 2 bags coleslaw cabbage or use 1/2 head each green and purple cabbage

Instructions
Place the pork shoulder in a slow cooker and season it with salt and pepper.
Pour in the chicken broth and balsamic vinegar, cover, and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, until the pork pulls apart easily.
Transfer the pork to a board and shred it with two forks, discarding excess fat and bone if present.
Add the cabbage to a large bowl. Add pineapple salsa, apple cider vinegar, avocado oil, and mayonnaise.
Toss the coleslaw until evenly coated, then refrigerate for about 1 hour so the flavors combine.
Top the pulled pork with barbecue sauce and pineapple coleslaw, then serve.
