I smoked this Boston Butt for 14 hours and turned out great

Smoked 13 hours, was great

Slow cooked this 12 pound pork shoulder for 4th of July. Slow cooked at 225 degrees for 18 hours in the oven. Shredded and everyone put their own favorite sauce on it. Melt in your mouth good. Was a big hit.

Sam’s consistently offers great fresh meat. The Pork Butt Roast, bone in, is a good example. Lots of good pork, appropriate amount of fat. Fresh! This meat was sliced, marinated, and cooked on a rotisserie. Very delicious.

one of my Sam's club staples. I buy a smaller one, usually like 17 bucks, slow cook overnight and through the day and it makes perfect pulled pork. a huge amount of meat for the price!

Purchased a Boston Butt to smoke for pulled pork. The butt required very little trimming including the fat cap which was perfect @ 1/4 inch thickness. Excellent marbling throughout. After a 13 hour smoke the finished product was delicious, moist and flavorful. The small bone came out cleanly and the meat shredded with ease. I will certainly purchase these from Sam’s Club again.

I purchased two of these in November 2020 and both had a green tinge in the meat close to the bone. I had to toss a lot of the meat as I had never seen this before. I will probably not buy again in Cryovac. I suspect the meat was old or mishandled in transit. Did not check pack date. If not in a bind as I was cooking for a party, I would have returned to Sams for a refund.

This pork shoulder made delicious Chinese barbecue pork. My family raved over this preparation. It was so tender and moist. I always thought that pork shoulder was used just for pulled pork, but I was surprised to find out that it’s used also for Chinese barbecue pork and is ready in 50 minutes. I found a wonderful recipe on woksoflife.com. I put it in stir fry and in soft tortillas. Or just slice, heat and eat. Delicious.

For 20 years or so, we have purchased boston butts for smoked bbq from Sam's Club. They were usually the best quality and nicely trimmed. We had great success with them. Approximately 4 years ago, the fat on the meat increased. With each year since, the fat has gotten thicker and thicker. The latest butts weighed 15 lbs and had almost 2 pounds of fat encasing them. These are generally larger pieces of meat than a regular grocer so I said I would recommend to a friend but it's disappointing to have that much fat let on the meat. These should be trimmed more closely so the customer is actually paying for the meat rather than the excess fat.

Sam's Boston Butt is one of the better values in the Meat Dept. When Sam's increased prices of the Baby-back Ribs and other pork products, I was looking for a better value? Pork Shoulders are what I came up with! Pulled Pork, Pork Sandwiches and spicy Pork Tacos are all great with Sam's Club Boston Butt Pork Shoulder! Hint: Instant-Pot recipies will cut the cooking time way down as Boston Butt can take a long time in a conventional oven or smoker.
