Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless pork shoulder
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium Yellow onion, chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 medium Carrots, sliced
• 2 stalks Celery stalks, sliced
• 6 cups Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cups Egg noodles
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Season the pork shoulder with salt and pepper, then sear it in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer the pork to the crock pot.

Step 3

In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Transfer them to the crock pot.

Step 4

Add the sliced carrots, celery, chicken broth, soy sauce, ground ginger, dried thyme, remaining salt, and black pepper to the crock pot.

Step 5

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the pork is tender and easy to shred.

Step 6

Carefully remove the cooked pork from the crock pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the pot.

Step 7

Add the egg noodles to the crock pot, stir, and cover the lid again. Cook for another 20-30 minutes on high, or until the noodles are tender.

Step 8

Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.

Step 9

Serve the soup hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
