Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Pat the pork shoulder dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Rub the pork shoulder with olive oil, then evenly apply the spice mixture all over.
Place the seasoned pork in a roasting pan, fat side up.
In another bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar, stevia, soy sauce, tomato paste, and liquid smoke.
Pour the sauce mixture over the pork.
Cover the roasting pan with foil and place it in the oven.
Roast for about 5 hours, basting occasionally with the pan juices, until the pork is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
Remove from oven and let the pork rest for about 20 minutes.
Shred the pork using two forks and toss it in its cooking juices before serving.
