shoulders Vs Butts

FM Former Member
Hello Guys.. Ive enjoyed reading all your post.
In the next 4-6 weeks I hope to be purchasing a Cookshack 250 for my BBQ place.
We have been cooking shoulders on a pit for the last 20 years. We take the skin off the shoulders then deep fry them for customers they sell GREAT. I was wondering if I still use shoulders on the Smoker will I Still be able to use the skin.
Also, Should I switch to butts? We have used then some in the past. I feel as though I go through too many butts.
Again, My wife & I enjoy reading all your post we have learned alot from all of you

Many folks carve around on the picnic,until there is just a little skin left around the hock.

The skin on cooking keeps the meat moist,but loses the bark and any rub penetration.

One approach is to cook it a few hours with the skin on and then skin,rub,and finish cooking.

The skin should slide off pretty easy then.

Put the skin back in the cooker, also .

Sure can eat the skins, as we strip the shoulders we place them in the 'fridge. We fry them in our fryer on Mon, Wed, & Fri. We sell them for $2.00 for 6oz. We sell out afer the 1st 20min we are open. We figure this is just free money for us. Add a little hot sauce & some BBQ sauce they are great!

Keep Q'ing
Terry
