Have you tried making bread in a Dutch Oven? A simple 4-6 qt. cast iron one will do - about $30. Enameled is nicer if you got a few extra dollars - less hassle with rust, but make sure handle can withstand 500° heat. I bet most every rustic loaf of bread posted on this thread was made using this method.
Check out the link I posted below. Took only 3 tries to get something decent. I honestly couldn't believe it worked. Lots of "No Knead Bread" recipes online, but if you want a good book, the library has several.

Parchment paper is mostly just useful for moving the dough around once it's out of the banneton (or whatever else you let it rise in after shaping). You can also find pretty cheap dutch ovens online that'll be just as effective, such as this one — there's no need to get a fancy expensive one like Le Creuset.
Don't use a crock pot. It's not the best tool for the job. I'd definitely suggest a [dutch oven] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073Q8DY3F). They're incredibly versatile. I've done stovetop lasagna, enchilada soup, pulled pork, carnitas, and tons of other things. My slow cooker has sat unused since getting my dutch oven.
Here's Chef John's carnitas recipe. This is where I started, but this will get you tender pork. Use spices that sound good to you, and then sauce at the end.
