- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper

Instructions
Pat the pork shoulder roast dry with paper towels and season generously with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, paprika, and thyme.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Sear the pork roast in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until nicely browned. This step locks in the flavor.

Season the vegetables with the remaining salt and pepper.
Place the seared pork roast on top of the vegetables.
Pour the chicken broth over the pork and vegetables.
Cover the Crock Pot with its lid and cook on low heat for 8 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
Once cooking is complete, carefully remove the pork roast and vegetables from the Crock Pot and transfer them to a serving dish. Shred the pork if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy a hearty, flavorful meal!
