Pork Butt (Boston Butt)

This is a 2.5-3.25 lb cut. Pork Butt is a cut of meat that is actually not from the hind end of the pig, but just above the shoulder. It is a thicker, more marbled cut than the shoulder. This is a great cut for stews or chilis but it is especially nice for pulled pork as it really falls apart nicely!
