1
Whisk the oil, vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic powder, onion and Worcestershire sauce together in a large zipper-top plastic bag. Place the pork in the bag with the marinade, seal the bag and turn the pork to coat. Refrigerate overnight, turning the bag once or twice.
2
Pour the entire contents of the bag into the insert of a 5 to 7 qt. slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 10 hrs., until the pork is fork tender.
3
Remove the pork from the cooker, cover with foil and let rest for 15 min. Meanwhile, skim off any fat from the sauce.
4
Using two forks, shred the meat, then return it to the sauce. At this point, the pork may be refrigerated up to 5 days or frozen for up to 2 mths. Serve warm, with additional BBQ sauce.
