In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and brown sugar to create a dry rub.

Pour the apple cider vinegar and chicken broth around the pork in the slow cooker, being careful not to wash off the rub.

Shred the pork using two forks and discard any large pieces of fat.
