  2. Step 2) Cover slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 4 to 6 hours or until meat is very tender.
  3. Step 3) When cooking is complete, remove and discard cinnamon sticks and bay leaves. Shred meat using two forks; drain meat but reserve the juices. Drizzle pork with oil, stir to combine.
