Anyone know where a home bbq'r can get it or is it a restaurant/professional order by the case only?
Thanks,
John

Pork Collar
Collar or neck end
The collar of pork is used for a number of different cuts such as spare ribs, chops, boneless steaks, diced pork and mince. The common feature of all the meat is that it's slightly fatty and therefore doesn't dry out when cooked for a long time. The cost of collar cuts is relatively low compared to other pork cuts.

Mostly I've seen it for sale overseas, or from overseas to here.
I'll look for a good link, but it's from what is called the "fore end" which also has the pork shoulder (you know butt and picnic) and from what I remember, it's basically higher up, towards the backbone from the shoulder. You know need the neck/collar of the hog.
It's not another name for Shoulder/butt/picnic.
Just another way of selling us more of the hog.
Just like 5 years ago, most q'ers didn't know what a butt was (no laughing now) but today they do.

Very good information indeed. I had thought it was what you used to take your pet potbelly (pig, that is) for a walk. Along with a pork leash of course.
I like floridave's explanation. Very Funny
Floridave, have I welcomed you yet? If not, or even if, WELCOME!
I try to get everyone at least once.

lj,
try cheney brothers or u.s.food in your neck of the woods.
expect to pay about 38 cents a pound higher than pork butts for this cut.
for slicing take it to an internal temp no higher than 160f.
where i work part time we go thru over 20 cases a week.
from dead frozen hard cook at 215 to 225f for around 6 to 8 hours in a southern pride depending on the the total load.
my experience in an SM150 has been 10 hours for a full case (8 collar) load.
hope it helps some
jack
ps. to reheat just place them back in the smoker for about 2 hours at 225f. no crutch required.

Oh yea. CookShack cooking/smoking is the most boring fun ever!
Thank's everyone for the responses.
Jack,
I can't use a case of them. One of these days when I get a weekend off I'll run up for lunch. Maybe I can buy a couple from you?
