In the past I have always used a boston butt.
I was in publix and saw a picnic and thought I would try it.
Big mistake, not happy with the results.
Lesson: stick with what you know.

Why are they called that, anyway?

In pre-revolutionary New England and into the Revolutionary War, some pork cuts (not those highly valued, or “high on the hog,” like loin and ham) were packed into casks or barrels (also known as “butts”) for storage and shipment. The way the hog shoulder was cut in the Boston area became known in other regions as “Boston Butt.” This name stuck and today, Boston butt is called that almost everywhere in the US,… except in Boston.

“Picnic ham” — Generally, the shoulder is smoked, they say, which gives it a very ham-like flavor. Since picnic shoulder/ham is an inexpensive substitute for real ham (which only comes from the hind legs), it is speculated that it would have been considered a good cut for casual dining — such as a picnic — rather than for use at a formal family dinner, such as Easter or Thanksgiving.

Wow! I grew up in Iowa hearing those cuts discussed but had no idea about the origins. I preferred the “picnic ham” over a regular ham because I thought it was a special hams that was really great for picnics and I love picnics.
