I always do the butts but am wanting to do a picnic this weekend for grins. I've not heard a lot of talk about this except someone once told me they thought the picnic was stronger tasting and they were not a fan of it. For those who do or have done them, what is the consistancy like in the meat on the picnic shoulders? The butts have both a dark and a whiter meat, do the picnics have that too?
Also, I am finding no picnics as of yet around here unless I order them ahead of time. Wally World so far is the only place that has them but of course they are enhanced. I really don't want a ham.
I know what's more common to cook in contest, of course it's a butt. Are we missing anything by not cooking the whole shoulder or just the picnic section along with a butt?
