Clean slow cooker and return meat to the cooker. For the caramelized onions, heat olive oil in a saucepan, add onions, brown sugar and Balsamic vinegar. Stir, cover and cook over low heat about 1/2 hour or until thickened and caramelized. Add all sauce ingredients to the pan. Bring heat up to medium, stir to mix well. Pour over the pork in the slow cooker. Replace lid, turn to "high" and cook 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Serve over toasted buns, stuffed into bell peppers, or over baked potatoes. Accompany with crisp coleslaw. Makes 10 - 12 servings.
