buckleybj Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I accidentally bought a two pack of bonless pork shoulder from Costco. I have always used bone-in, so this is new to me. As I was preparing the butts trimming sinew, silver skin, hard fat, veins etc, I started also cutting portions of the butts into sections. I now have two 4 lb boneless butts and several large scraps. This has provided me the opportunity to use the vertical spit I bought from Ceramicgrillstore.com a few months ago. I'm excited to say the least. I'll post picture of the meal later this afternoon when I build it get it going. Here are pics of what I ended up with after trimming and then the portions I will smoke overnight for pulled pork tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this was my first try and I didn't cut the pork large enough. I was only able to get 2 lbs if the 4 lbs of scraps I had on this spit.

paintflinger Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I like butterflying the butt out in one long piece (pinwheel type cut) and then cutting the pieces to size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
