Pork shoulder blade, commonly known as pork butt or Boston butt, is a flavourful and versatile cut from the upper shoulder, known for its rich marbling, generous fat content, and tender, juicy texture when cooked slowly. Newton offers both bone-in and boneless options to accommodate different culinary applications and processing requirements. Bone-in pork shoulder blade is particularly well suited to slow roasting, smoking, and braising, while the boneless option provides convenient portioning for steaks, cubes, slices, and further processing. This cut is widely used for pulled pork and smoked Boston butt, Mexican carnitas and al pastor, Chinese char siu and braised pork, Korean dwaeji bulgogi, Japanese chashu, and Filipino pork adobo. For restaurants, butcher shops, and food processors, pork shoulder blade can be portioned into steaks, sliced for barbecue, diced for stews and kebabs, or ground for sausages, dumpling fillings, meatballs, and other processed meat products. Its excellent flavour, versatility, and processing yield make it a popular choice for both traditional cooking and high-volume commercial food production.
