About this cut

What it is and how to use it

This is a shoulder roast with the bone removed and the meat rolled and tied or netted into a compact shape. It has the rich marbling of the shoulder and works well roasted, braised, or smoked. Without the bone, it is easier to slice or shred and to cut into cubes for stews. It is a convenient cut for pulled pork and carnitas.

Cook’s tipCook low and slow to about 195 to 205°F for shredding, or to at least 145°F with a three-minute rest if you want to slice it. Remove the string before shredding.
