Bone-in Pork Shoulder (Boston Butt) - Local Heritage Breed

Cut from the upper portion of the shoulder, the Boston butt is a well-marbled, bone-in roast known for its rich, savory flavor and ability to become tender and juicy with low and slow cooking. With a balanced mix of fat and connective tissue, it breaks down over time into a pull-apart texture with a full, satisfying finish.

Sourced from our locally raised heritage breed pigs — a blend of Mangalitsa, Duroc, and Berkshire — this cut benefits from high-quality fat that renders gradually, adding depth and consistency throughout the cook.

Raised from farrow to finish by our partner producer, these pigs are carefully managed through their entire life cycle to ensure quality at every stage. Ideal for smoking, roasting, or braising, the Boston butt is the foundation for pulled pork and other slow-cooked preparations.

Hand-cut at Back Home Butchery for proper sizing and bone structure — dependable, flavorful, and built for long cooks.
