I've bought this from Costco, it is cut into strips like a tri tip sized cuts..

I don't really know kind of pork this is, but I am looking for suggestions on how to cook it.

Can you make pulled pork with it?

    Country style ribs are slabs cut from the butt section of a pork shoulder. As such, they are somewhat problematic. They have lots of fat and connective tissue that need to be rendered/broken down, but are small enough that they can dry out.

    They benefit from braising in a Dutch oven, or from cooking awhile wrapped in foil. I also marinate them, and cook them fairly hot and quick, and expect to cut around the tough and fatty spots.

    So I could make it like a beef stew? I am going to trim as much fat as I can find.

    I had also marinated it before with char siu sauce and indirect 300 for about 1 hour, slice and serve and it's similar to BBQ pork from Chinese restaurants.
