Cured Ham Roast Butt? Help?

stompbox · October 2014

Being the young newbie egger that I am, I really need to start learning my cuts of meat and what they are used for.....

Earlier this year, we got a 1/4 of a pig and one item taking up much freezer space is "Cured Ham Roast Butt" What is this used for? The words Cured and Roast are throwing me off here.

Is this just a normal pork butt that you use for pulled pork? Is this a ham that you typically slice for say Easter? Is this to be used in a roast with veggies and such? I am at a loss.... What should be made of this and how?

From the info provided, you have a ham. A ham consists of two parts, shank and butt.

This is NOT a butt or shoulder that is usually bbq'd.

Not sure of the confusion, but cured means just that.

Gotcha... Bummer, guess I need to look up BGE ham recipes.
