Ham is from the pigs butt - i.e. hind leg.
Boston butt/shoulder is just that -- front leg/shoulder. The butt from the Boston butt comes from the cut being at the base (or butt) of the leg - which in this case is the shoulder.
Now, are we completely confused?? :D |
Okay, here's a question for someone with a Pork Chart handy. Albertson's is promoting Pork shoulders (boneless, 3.5-6 lbs.)buy one get one free this week. Is this the Pork Butt part of the shoulder or the Picnic roast? How do you tell? I'd like to stock up but don't want the picnic. :?
