Dale's Pulled Pork

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

Season pork shoulder roast generously with sea salt and black pepper.

Heat olive oil in a 4-quart oven-safe pot with a lid over high heat. Sear seasoned pork roast in hot oil on all sides until completely browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Remove the pork roast to a cutting board, reserving the fat in the pot.

Pour the chicken broth into the pot; bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a flat-edged wooden spoon. Stir liquid smoke into the onion mixture. Return pork roast to the pot and cover with a lid.

Bake in preheated oven until completely tender, 3 to 4 hours.

Remove pork to a cutting board, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and allow it to rest for 15 minutes. Shred the pork with a 2 forks into fine shreds. Return shredded pork to the pot and stir with the remaining liquid to serve.
