I thought it was a picnic roast. Frankly, I do not remember. Only thing that is for sure is that I ordered this slab custom from a local meat packer. Turns out pork is almost never sold in these parts with the skin on. The butcher told me he would have to "scald" one for me which sounded interesting. I placed my order on a post-it note that got stuck to some well seasoned trim surrounding the picture window in the butchers office. About 6 weeks after leaving the cryptic order, I got the call. "Yep- we got those pork roasts with the skin the way you wanted em... how did you want em again"? They cut a couple of these on the band saw in front of me and away I went. I believe the piggy was slaughtered and parted out into primal that same day, and I was pretty stoked. The meat went on at 250 for about 8 or 9 hours until it hit 198F. Then I jacked the heat to over 500F to get the skin to crisp and bubble up. Unfortunately, SWMBO despises pulled pork, but I predict this will be done again. thanks for looking! P-
