Boston Butt..

Post by traveller »

Hey all.. In Melbourne and about to begin my low/slow journey on my GMG Daniel Boone. Looking at a Costco Boston Butt today and was wondering if it's any good, and what tips anyone can give me about trimming it up.

Thanks.

I did one a few weeks ago. I didn't trim it at all, just rubbed it all over and straight into the GMG it turned out fine.

Did one last weekend, trimmed off the fat cap, not necessary but we don't like it anyway.

Love Costco butts.

Need a bit of a trim. No need to leave a fat cap due to so much fat running through meat. This is NOT a brisket.

Brine (salt rub 2hrs before), Rub, 250-275f until 160-170f then foil in Pan until 20(something). Chuck in cooler for and hour and shred.

F'ing yum
