So, my go to meat for smoking for larger groups is pulled pork...
I've done hundreds upon hundreds of pounds over the years using all manner of recipes and techniques BUT...
I had never taken the time to trim out the money muscle to experience what all the fuss in competition circles was all about...
SO, with no nothing special planned other than my personal desire to eat some Q this weekend I did a boston butt and took the time to trim out that little muscle...
OH, GLORIOUS DAY...
I will always take the time to trim that little guy out now..
Butts by default are full of fat and flavor but the collar muscle when trimmed out is above and beyond luscious...
I'm truly disappointed I didnt get pics of what I did or the finished product on this one but I'll be sure to get pics on the next.
If you guys love your pulled pork, take the extra 10 minutes to trim and prep that "money muscle"...You'll be happy you did.
