Letting the meat sit and pre slicing and then returning the pot is the way I recommend doing it. Some cooks I know also swear by a thin serrated knife to slice the meat, keeping the slices on the thin side. Regardless, it will taste delicious.
Do you mean it shredded? I am making it as I type. Just put it back together as best you can and carry on. That's what I would do. I think someone in the comments suggested it sit out on a cutting board for at least ten minutes before slicing. A few people had the same issue. A sharp knife would also be key.
