Cut the onion and place it on top of the ribs.
Zest the orange, then cut it in half and give it a squeeze before placing it into the crockpot.
Zest the limes and then give them a squeeze before placing them into the crockpot. Pour the water gently down the sides of the crock pot so that it doesn’t wash the spices off of the pork. Add bay leaves.
Put the lid on, set on high for 4-6 hours or low for 6-8 hours.
When the meat is falling from the bone, it is finished.

Use two forks and shred the meat by pulling it in opposite directions with the forks turned upside down. Discard any bones or heavy tendons that you may find.
Dip out 1 Cup of the crock pot juices and pour over the meat in the baking sheet and mix well.
Broil under HI for about 3-4 minutes to crisp up the meat
