Notes
- For best flavor, cook on LOW for a slow, tender finish.
- You can substitute apple pie filling with fresh apples and a bit of cinnamon for a less sweet version.
- Make sure the pork is completely cooked and tender before slicing for best texture.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
