  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Combine paprika, smoky bbq mix, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper; rub evenly over pork. Coat pan with cooking spray and add pork to pan. Cook 10 minutes, searing pork on all sides.
  2. Place pork in slow cooker.
  3. Add stock and next 4 ingredients (through crushed red pepper) to skillet; bring to a boil, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Stirring mixture with a whisk, add peach preserves.

  8. Stir bourbon into drippings; bring to a boil. Cook 10 minutes or until mixture is reduced.
