Default cuts of pork

Found the label "Fresh Pork Shoulder Blade Boston Butt Roast."

LOL I didnt realize it had a bone in it till I was pulling meat out of
the crockpot-large part of the shoulder blade.

I had it on low in crockpot for ~11 hrs (pineapple juice,
worcestershire, light brown sugar) and it was very soft "pulled" pork.
Needs a crusty roll because of the amount of moisture in it-my light
sandwich bread turned to mush. Flavorwise it was basic-my mother would
think the flavor was just right, I however need more of a kick so I
added barbeque sauce to my second sandwich.

Spare ribs have better flavor than this cut of pork-it had a large layer
of fat but it didn't seem to add extra flavor.

$1.89 pound sure is cheaper than beef. Just under 3lbs easily enough
meat for 10 sandwiches. I would like to take the extra meat and make a
baked bean & pork casserole I think.
