About this cut

What it is and how to use it

Diced pork is boneless pork cut into bite-sized cubes, usually from the shoulder, though lean leg or loin may also be used. Shoulder cubes stay juicy and tender through a long simmer, so they work well in stews, chili verde, curries, and carnitas. Leaner cubes cook faster and suit kabobs or stir-fries. Cut size matters, so ask for about one-inch pieces for stew.

Cook’s tipBrown the cubes and simmer gently until tender, or cook to at least 145°F if cooking quickly.
