Notes
To keep from the pork roast from drying out, it's best to cook pork on low. The high heat can cook similar to boiling, where the low setting on your slow cooker will be more of a braise. Just watch it toward the end of cooking time so you don't overcook it. Pork shoulder roasts will self baste and stay moist.
