70/365 Boston Butts

I love road trips. One reason is you get to learn so many interesting facts about the areas you visit. I never heard the term "Boston Butt" and honestly, the term conjured up some interesting images. Boston butt, or pork butt, is the American name for a cut of pork that comes from the upper part of the shoulder from the front leg and may contain the blade bone. It has nothing to do with the hind end of anything!!

 

Boston butt is the most common cut used for pulled pork, a staple of barbecue in the southern United States.
