Pork Butts

[Tweedle]

So I have had a runnign debate with some family and I was wondering how Ya'll do it. Do you buy bone in or out Pork Butts? if bone i do you debone before or after?

Personaly i used to buy bone in smoke and then pull. I have tryed getting deboned butts buts but they cost quite a bit more..... (that I cant figure out since its a 2 second job...) Last time i deboned it myself rolled it up and tied it with butchers twine , which ii will be doing from now on as i felt that the smoke got deeper.

But anywho how do you all get'em?

bone in, pull bone before pulling.

Same.
That's how I check how done the butt is.

I like to wiggle the bone in the butt.

Bone = flavor!

I normally get bone in and pull it out just before pulling. However, for a number of experiments I have done where I tested a large number of variables, I bought either shoulder country style ribs or bought butts bone-in, deboned them while still raw and cut up into similar sized chunks for the test.

Bone in, I buy into the idea that the meat tastes better bone in.

Bone-in; when it slides out it's done.

Bone in. When it wiggles right out, it's done.

Too many jokes too be made.

One more time when the bone comes out its done

Bone? you mean pigs have bones in their butts? :wink:

 

[River City Smokehouse]

Bone-in makes the job easy to tell when it's done. Boneless..... use it to make BB bacon!
MMmm Bacon!
