Begin by trimming excess fat from the pork shoulder. Season the pork generously with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, cumin, and cayenne pepper.

Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet and sear the pork shoulder for about 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Transfer the seared pork to a slow cooker, add onion, garlic, apple cider vinegar, and half of the BBQ sauce. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours.

Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks, mixing in the reserved BBQ sauce.

Assemble the sandwich with pulled pork on the bottom half of each bun and add coleslaw if desired. Place the top half of the bun on the filling.

Serve while warm, optionally with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
