In the slow cooker add the small pieces of onion which has already been cut along with a quarter cup each of brown sugar, mashed tomato and vinegar. Also add half a cup of ketchup (tomato) and any other sauce of your choice. Stir so as to mix the contents well.

Add the pork pieces to the cooker and turn them so that they are fully covered with the sauce mixture. Cover the cooker with a lid and cook it for about ten minutes in low heat. By now the meat should have become soft and tender (if not then reheat for another two to three minutes).

Now transfer the meat onto a bowl with the help of tongs and keep it aside. Change the heat settings to high and boil the sauce mixture. Boiling has to be done until the sauce becomes nice and thick. When the volume of sauce becomes half, shred small pieces of the pork into the cooker. You may use forks for holding the pork pieces when doing this.
