I'm not posting this under the comments on the slow cooker pulled pork page because I will not use disqus ever. The posted recipe made moist slow cooker pulled pork and it was similar to results I've had from other recipes. Slow cooker pulled pork produces an okay result but the results are best used in another recipe such as a pulled pork taco.
It was a first for me to use apples, apple juice or mayonnaise in a bbq related recipe; I won't use them again: I found no advantage. I don't use or own liquid smoke (but it can only help in a slow cooker). I used Fat Matt's bbq sauce (Atlanta) and pork rub from a local chef (Seattle). I rarely use bbq sauce. I'm glad that I tried this slow cooker pulled pork recipe once.
I can't recall the last 7 lb pork shoulder that I cooked because they take took long to bbq but in a slow cooker it's set and forget. For bbq shredded pork, I use cushion meat (restaurant supply stores) or Hormel's smaller chunks of pork shoulder that I find at smaller, neighborhood grocers.
Slow cookers are well covered in ATK's book, Slow Cooker Revolution.
