Port butt = Shoulder?

I have a nice big piece of "boneless pork butt". Is that ok to make pulled pork out of?

The purple one was the pedophile one right?

You expect the Pulled Pork Agency to kick down your door?
Cook it enough so it falls apart by just looking at it sharply and you can make pulled one out of every pork.

Yes butt is shoulder

>>21457240 (OP)
what a stupid question.

>>21457240 (OP)
i'll pork your butt and i won't pull out.

>>21457287
why would i not ask that question?

>>21457298
because it's stupid. there is no rules as to what pork meat you use.

>>21457301
and im supposed to know this without asking.

He was gay and everyone got mad. Imagine that today. People would get pissed that he's NOT gay.

>>21457305
yes

Fuck this smells good.

>>21457360
So I was right. He was the pedophile.

>>21457240 (OP)
no, you can only make pushed pork

He was the most relatable and human-like of the four, yes.

Wrong. Try and make pulled pork out of a pork loin. There's nowhere near enough fat on it.
You technically COULD shred the meat, but shredding alone does not a 'pulled pork' make, hombre. You need a ton of fat, so you use specific cuts. I wouldn't go shredding a bunch of pork chops.

>>21457305
There are no stupid questions, but maybe this doesn't deserve its own thread. A simple web search will tell you shoulder = butt, and that this is what you want for pulled pork.

>>21459154
No, gays are not necessarily pedos and it's wrong to suggest so.

Cut it into 4 manageable chunks and dry brine it with salt, spices, and brown sugar. Then take a hot oiled pan and sear all surfaces of the 4 chunks so it's nice and brown and then put in a pot with a little liquid if you want, cover and braise for 3 - 4 hours. It should fall apart and be ready to go if you seasoned it enough. If not, dump in half a bottle of BBQ sauce and stir it up with tongs. Should just fall right apart. Mix it enough to evenly distribute the fat and flavors, but don't overwork it until it's strings.

It is wholly correct. One and the same.

This is the recipe I used

Smells fucking amazing.

I just poked it with a fork. Not falling apart, but there's still 2 hours to go.

>>21457280
I've made pulled pork out of a whole loin before and it tasted like metal.

Holy shit, you guise. This isn't pulled pork, it's dissolves when you touch it with a fork-pork.

So soft I can't even.

Turned out really well.

I'm not going to eat it until tomorrow. Should I leave it in the liquid over night or drain it now?

>>21459629
Another stupid fucking question. Of course leave it in the liquid why wouldn't you?

>>21459629
pls I must know.

hallo?

>>21459629
Drain it but reserve some liquid. When the liquid cools in the fridge the fat will form a solid layer that you can remove easily. When you want to heat some pork to eat you can heat some of the liquid in a pan then toss your pork in it to keep it moist.

>>21459616
Can't even what? Scoop it out?

>>21459629
You don't drain the liquid. You stir it in as it solidifies. The fat is what gives it the richness and flavor.

>>21460263
Can't even get over how well it turned out.

>>21460264
So I shouldn't skim the layer of fat that's formed in the fridge?

Can I use bacon?

I made some last week with a butt a neighbour gave me.
I think it’s overrated to be honest, I never end up eating it all.
