Wait until the shoulder browns on outside on all sides in crockpot to add veggies.
You can't really overcook, particularly if you reduced to simmer after a few hours.
And you don't have to get up at the crack of dawn to have it done by dinner either. Its done when the pork is fork separable and fat is rendered into broth. Could be as quick as 5-6 hours cooking, depending on size of meat.
