Pork shoulder, butt, picnic- all synonymous with meltingly delicious porkiness! This is the cut for slow and low pulled pork or carnitas, in the oven, on the smoker or grill, or in the crock pot. Best when cooked at a low temp (about 225 F) for a long time, and taken well past well done (all the way to an internal temp of 205 F is ideal, at least to 185 F), the shoulder is also pretty forgiving if you need to crank the heat up to 300F to speed things up a bit.
Pasture raised, antibiotic free pork from the Capay Valley. Fed only non-GMO feed, heritage breed crosses (Berkshire, Hampshire, Gloucester Old Spot).
