what cut are you guys using? I noticed there is a pretty big price difference? what is going to produce the best results?
please discuss.

The only cut that I've done so far was a picnic and that was because I was dying to do something of a lengthy cook. I did notice that some, not all, of the meat had a hammy taste and the rest was pulled pork quality. It was a 7lb bone-in picnic @ 250 for 12-13 hours. I believe the hammy part is normal for the picnic. I could be wrong though.
Is the picnic and the butt together a whole shoulder?

What Alan said. I've recently done both and loved both. The texture and taste of the picnic is a little different, but I like it. My FIL LOVED the picnic I did, so I've got two more in the freezer ($.89 per pound too good to pass up) along with a butt. Next thing I cook will probably be one of the picnics and I'll do an injection.I have cooked them both and like them both,for the price picnic is a great cut just cook it a little longer than butts.
