Should I cook it like a butt?

Mark Stanton · 08-14-2011, 12:38 AM

My wife's friend gave her this from a hog they butchered.
Just wondering what yall would do with this

It says it's a shoulder, but I've never seen one look like this one.

I'm thinking cook like a butt? It's 6.5#.

I put some butt glitter on it and into the fridge

I'll be cooking on a UDS, oh ya! Thought I'd put it on early in the morn.

It looks enough like a butt to me that I would cook it just like one.

Bet it is going to turn out great.

That's what the shoulder looks like............. with the spine!

I get em like that all the time. I usually take the spine/neck out cuz you can get more rub on the meat directly = more bark = more flavor!! They make great treats for your 4 legged assistants!

So yessir! You're on the right track.

Cheers
