    jwitheld, you can use a fresh ham (hind leg)for a low and slow, but, not very easy to pull (due to lack of fat/marbling), so it is easier to slice thin and serve that way. It will need sauce, as it is very dry at that temp. Pork Shoulder Picnic CAN be used for pulled pork, cook same as the Boston Butt.

    Rumrunner,
    was afraid the ham would be too lean. but then sliced pork is good too.
