Season the pork shoulder pieces with half the salt, the black pepper, and the garlic powder.
Place the pork and water in a small slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours until the meat is very tender. Done when tender and easy to shred, 145°F.
Transfer the pork to a bowl and shred with two forks. Strain the cooking liquid from the cooker and skim off any fat. Stir the liquid and the barbecue sauce into the meat to moisten it.
In a separate bowl, toss the cabbage with the apple cider vinegar and the remaining salt.
Warm a small skillet over medium heat. Place the bun halves cut-side down and toast for 2 minutes until golden. Place the bottom bun on a plate, top with the shredded pork and the cabbage slaw, and close with the top bun.
