Go with the (Pork) Boston Butt. That'll most likely be how its marked in the store. I prefer bone-in myself, but its preference. It also a portion of the pork shoulder, so a shoulder would work find too.Wanting to smoke something to do sandwiches for the weekend. Need help on cut of meat and smoking methods.

I have done an overnight brining (salt, brown sugar, pickling spices). I've not yet tried injecting. Have you compared injecting and brining?I started injecting my butts and I think it improved them tremendously.
Pork Butts have a good amount of fat within and around them. There really should be no need to inject them but I have sometimes marinaded them in Mojo and injected them with Sour Orange. Only to impart flavor. It really does nothing to help how moist it turns out.Ive got a buddy that marinates in a mixture of mountain dew and spices. No taste of MT DEW but it does help keep the butts moist
