This is the perfect cut for making pulled pork, or just for cooking low ‘n’ slow. Great fat content in the meat and leaving the bone in helps to distribute heat evenly during cooking.
What will arrive?
The 3kg Boston butt is around half of a whole butt (photo). It will arrive with the skin on and the section of rib or neck bone intact. Many of our customers prefer this option as the bone helps retain moisture and flavour. If you would like us to remove the skin or the bone, please let us know in the notes at the checkout and we’ll do that for you
We also have available a whole Boston butt
Due the vac’ packaging process that we use, for hygiene reasons, you may notice some odour when you open the bag. This is normal and should disappear when the meat has been exposed to the air for a while

When you buy Boston butt online from Grid Iron Meat, we do our very best to select one that will be perfect for low ‘n’ slow cooking. Whether your cooking it on a BBQ, grill, smoker or just in the oven, this will give you the pulled pork you’re looking for. All our Boston butts are prepared by our butchers from native breed pork, normally Gloucester Old Spot. Being slow growing, the rare breeds we use have meat with a good fat content that adds flavour and bastes the meat during slow cooking.
Cook slowly and allow the internal temperature to get up to 86c and the collagen in the butt will break down making the meat fall away from the bone and shred easily with a pair of forks.
Our Boston Butts are most popular at around 3kg, but if you would like something larger please get in touch and we’ll arrange it for you.
For a smaller joint you might like to try a pork shoulder top joint or a boned and rolled pork shoulder.

This was a huge piece of pork, bone in, including the rib bones, when it had finished cooking the bone just fell out and the joint crumbled in my hands. It was perfection!!!!

The most delicious pulled pork from this not too enormous cut. Brilliant service and welfare of animals are a big part of why we love Gridiron.

Pulled pork has to be one of my favourites, cooked on the smoker low n slow for about 10hrs! Grid Iron never lets me down. Superb meat every time, highly recommend.
Gavin Pearce (verified owner) –
Cooked low and slow on kamodo, pulled pork was amazing, smoked with a few apple wood chunks, to a little shy of 95 degrees. Gorgeous, would recommend, the cut was very generous, only had half as it’s more than enough for 3 people for sandwiches and loaded jackets for the week. Will order again when I get more pennies.

Slow cooked to make Rillettes. The flavour is amazing, will be buying more.

The meat is great, but I just can’t master smoking pork but. 14 hours and I’m still not hitting 200F. I’ve also previously used the skin to make pork scratchings which are great.
Alex Waller (verified owner) –
Great value for the size and quality of meat. The cut was as advertised and fairly straight forward to trim before smoking and pulling. The fat content was perfect to provide fantastic pulled pork.
