but butt



Picnic shoulder, pork butt, Boston butt, pork shoulder, the front legs, whatever you call it.

Pork Shoulder Arm Picnic

It was prepared by rubbing with a little dijon mustard and red chile, salt and pepper and then slow roasting. It was later pulled and enjoyed with some favorite bbq sauce on white bread.

That looks both tempting and overwhelming in a both sophisticated and caveman-ish kind of a way....
That was my immediate feeling when I saw those Meaty photos..
I'll grab a tomatoe to get stabilized...

Oh my freaking God. That looks so good!!!!!! You have GOT to tell me how to make that, exactly, please!

I'll tell you how I make mine.

Get a port butt. Poke holes in it with a fork. Pour some liquid hickory smoke all over it, maybe a 1/3 to 1/2 bottle, depending on how big the butt is. Rub Hawaiian salt all over it. Wrap it up really tight with heavy duty aluminum foil. I usually do two layers and crimp the edges so the liquid doesn't leak out. Put in a crock pot on low about 12 hours and it will be the juiciest, most tender pull apart meat, and it tastes almost exactly like the pig from an actual Luau in Hawaii.

Those are great little pieces of meat for the price, aren't they? I usually end up making bar-b-que out of it.

That looks like good southern cooking! We take our BBQ serious down here in Alabama.

Baked beans with PLENTY of brown sugar, corn on the cob, and yes, white bread.

I am starving now.

I see you have a dry rub here does the flavour penetrate the meat??
