Preparation steps
1.
Combine 1 tablespoon brown sugar, paprika, mustard powder, cumin, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork.
2.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet; add the pork and cook, turning, until browned on all sides, approximately 5 minutes. Remove the pork and transfer to a plate; whisk 3/4 cup water into the drippings in the skillet. Transfer the liquid to a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker.
3.
Add the vinegar, tomato paste, the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 2 cups water to the slow cooker and whisk to combine. Add the pork, cover and cook on low, 8 hours.
4.
Remove the pork and transfer to a cutting board. Strain the liquid into a saucepan, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Season with salt. Roughly chop the pork and mix in a bowl with 1 cup of the reduced cooking liquid. Serve on buns with coleslaw.
