A local discount food market has bone in pork sirloin roasts for 1.39lb if you buy 10lbs or more. I haven't seen it yet as I can't get up there until Friday. Just curious if this would be a similar cut to pork cushion which I have done before. The last cushion I bought got cured and smoked like BBB and it turned out great. It was very much like small hams. I also cooked one like butt for pulled pork and it was fantastic.

I don't know what pork cushion is. The sirloin roast is going to be leaner than a butt. Remember a lot of places will price match. I prefer to take the ad to a different store. I find that it is a more trimmed up product and often cut better.

Happy smoken.

I think I got it figured out. Cushion and sirloin are from different ends of the animal. Might pick some up anyway if it's trimmed decent. It might make some good back bacon or grind for sausage at that price.
