For a deeper smoky flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika to the spice rub. If you prefer a tangier flavor, add a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to the slow cooker along with the BBQ sauce. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months. For extra flavor, try browning the pork loin in a skillet before adding it to the slow cooker.
