What's up guys, my name is Andy. I recently just purchased my first offset smoker. Its a cheap brand (rivergrille) but I didn't want to spend too much on my first one in case it's not really for me, anyways I seasoned and heated it up according to manufacturers recommendations and tomorrow I will be trying it out for the first time. I asked my wife to get a Boston butt at the market and she brought home a picnic arm cut, how do these two cuts differ when trying to smoke them? I wanted the Boston butt to make pulled pork I'm hoping I can still make it happen with the picnic arm cut. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
 
Welcome from SC, Andy. It's good to have you here on this great site. The picnic will basically cook the same as the butt. When it finishes, it will have somewhat more fat, but it is not too difficult to dispose of. If you will go to the pork section, you can get a lot of information.

Good luck and good smoking, Joe. :grilling_smilie:
