This yields a sumptuous, well marbled Cut of Pork, with little or no waste, making it a well-deserved member of our Thrifty Cuts Range.

The Chine bone evenly distributes heat during cooking, ensuring slow optimum temperatures can be held for a lengthy period, helping to slowly break the Collagen down and melt it to the rich liquid Gelatine.

This in turn gives the Pork Meat its bundles of flavour - and a wonderful silky texture - which differentiates the Pork Boston Butt and makes it so special when preparing Pulled Pork

Anecdotal evidence
Anecdotal evidence suggests that the Boston Butt is so named from the time it became popular in Boston, USA in the 19th Century - when it was a cheap Cut, used in one-pot Stews by the Irish population, with Irish butchers cutting off the Rind for better use when cooking Stews.

The 'money muscle'
Boston Butt includes what is called in the States - the 'money muscle' - which is a small strip of Loin Meat - that Professional Cooks hope will win them the money when tasted.
