Pork "Butt" Cut

edited November -0001 in EggHead Forum
I bought my large egg late last summer and I'm ready to do a long, slow and low cook over this long weekend.

I typically buy my meat at Costco becuase I like the quality for the price. What do I look for to cook a pork "butt?" Am I looking for a pork shoulder, pork roast, etc.? I saw that Costco had these cuts but I'm not sure if that's what people refer to as a pork "butt."

Any help would be appreciated as well as what the setup should be.

Thanks,

    I get my pork butt from Sams. I believe it is a pork shoulder with a bone in it. Costco has the same thing but it is boneless. I prefer to cook my butts with the bone in.

    It will still taste good with the butt from Costco.

    I grew up in Arlington Heights and my parents still live there. If you every need help I'm in Arlington Heights about once a month.

    Anyway good luck.
