2. Massage the spice rub all over the meat.
3. If you have the time, wrap and refrigerate the meat for 3 hours or as long as 24 to let the rub set in. If you don’t have the time, just season the pork and start cooking.
4. Place the pork into the slow cooker and pour the beef broth in.
5. Cook on low for 8-10 hours.
6. Remove the pork from the crockpot and place it on a cutting board.
7. Shred with two forks or tongs and serve.

2. tablespoon of minced garlic.

4. Put olive oil, garlic, and ginger in a bowl and let it marinate while you prep vegetables to season the oil.
5. Cut bell peppers lengthwise, then remove seeds and trim any white parts. Cut each piece of pepper into thin strips. Make the red pepper strips just slightly wider than the beans.
6. Trim ends of green beans and cut them in half.
7. Put the green beans and red pepper strips into a medium-sized bowl and then toss with the olive oil, garlic, and ginger.

10. Season to taste with salt and fresh ground black pepper and serve hot.
