Bros, this is a really stupid (and slightly embarrassing) moment. I've been smoking for 7 years and never lived near a Costco until recently. Tonight I bought my first pork butts (four of them!) from a Costco. It never even occurred to me to check for bone-in vs boneless. I have never once seen a boneless butt at any other store I've ever bought from. Always bone-in. So imagine my surprise when I slit open the first two-pack tonight to inject and rub, and.....VOILA! filleted pork butt falling open in my hands. Reminds me of the time I bought a whole packer brisket from a local restaurant owner (buddy of mine) to save a few pennies....got home and the thing was sliced horizontally into five strips. Horror. Though not quite as bad this time.
I'm all in at this point. How should I alter my cook strategy, if at all, for a boneless and mangled pork butt? I'm all ears.
