When you turn the crockpot on high, its really hot Vinny.
Pork shoulder has a great deal of fat and connective tissue in it, there's practically no danger of it drying out. The connective tissue gelatinizes over the long, low cooking time making the meat moist and tender. The fat renders out and pools in the bottom so you can just lift out the roast leaving it behind. No additional liquid is necessary.
It'll cook fine at high or low settings. The choice pretty much comes down to how long you're going to leave it unattended or how much of a rush you're in. I've pushed it through in 5-6 hours on high when I was at home with it and left it for 8-10 on low when I was out for the day.
Burning food is pretty much impossible in a crockpot because even on high it's still too low to brown, much less burn. The worst thing that can happen is you forget it for some ridiculously long time and overshoot by days and it dries out. Crockpots are very, very forgiving on the long side of cooking times when it comes to meat. Veggies need a little more attention because they can kind of disintegrate if left on too long.
Thanks guys. I'm going to have to go get a roast this weekend.
Invite me ya dick! My mom ungrounded me!

^ you must be dieting. I used to do that...eat right during the week and then go for it on the weekends. When you are on a good roll, you can eat all weekend and not do much damage to the waistline if you still work out and stuff.
And for me, besides a pizza, stay away(or try to stay away) from processed carbs. Breads just kill me. Sourdough is good though.
