2 tbsp coarse salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 cup orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 small white onion, coarsely chopped

1. Season pork with salt and pepper. Place all ingredients for pork in slow cooker, mixing well. Cook 8-10 hours, or until pork is tender and easy to pull apart. Cool slightly and shred with two forks.
2. Just before serving, bring 4 cups of water to a boil, stir in rice, salt, and oil, reduce heat and simmer, cover and cook until rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in cilantro and lime juice. Set aside and keep warm.
3. Once rice is cooking, heat oil in a large saucepan and saute onion and garlic over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Add black beans, oregano, pepper flakes and cilantro; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in red wine vinegar. Simmer or keep warm until ready to serve.
4. Scoop serving of rice into bowl, spoon black beans on top, then shredded pork.
