I am smoking a butt tomorrow, there is a bone inside the butt I got, should I cut it out before I smoke it, or leave it in? Thanks!

Leave it in.

Leave it in. When the butt reaches 200f, try to wiggle it. If it pulls loose the butt is done.

Leave it in. I always cook mine with bone in for duration of cook.

That's a built in thermometer. When the bone pulls out with no resistance the shoulder is done.

Bone in the butt.  I'm a pretty progressive guy, I don't see a problem with that.

Kinda reminds me of a song....

"Put the Bone In" by Terry Jacks (1974)

Leave it in. It's the most satisfying thing in the world when you can pull that bone out with no resistance. I hope that didn't get weird.

It is satisfying both ways. I'm okay with this!

it's very natural
