Instructions
Pat the pork roast dry with some paper towels.
In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub the spice mixture over the pork roast and place it in the slow cooker.
Pour apple cider vinegar around the roast. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
About 45 minutes before the pork roast is finished cooking, prepare the roasted potatoes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Add the diced potatoes to a bowl and toss with olive oil. Add in paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss again to coat. Spread out in a single layer on a baking sheet. I like to line mine with parchment paper for easy clean up.
Bake at 400 degrees for 20-30 minutes until potatoes are tender.
Remove the roast and shred it. Add it back into the slow cooker with 1 cup of bbq sauce. Allow it to sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavors before serving.
To serve, divide the potatoes between 4 bowls. Top each with some of the pulled bbq pork followed by shredded cheddar cheese and chopped fresh cilantro.
