1. Cut the pork into six equal pieces and put them in the slow cooker.
2. Add the salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, garlic, onion, bay leaves and lime juice. Squeeze in the orange juice and add the spent orange halves too. Mix until the meat is well coated.
3. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, until the meat pulls apart easily.
4. Transfer the pork to a foil-lined baking sheet and shred it, spreading it in a single layer.
5. Pour about 1 cup (235 ml) of the cooker liquid over the shredded pork.
6. Broil 5 to 10 minutes until the meat browns and crisps at the edges.
