The Perfect Boston Butt
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.

Fantastic cut of pork. Cooked beautifully. Delivery was as stated, nicely packed and still chilled! Communication was excellent.

The meat was fantastic but the customer service was another level. Really went out of their way to help me out and delivered impeccably.

Would have been 5 stars but my request to remove the skin was ignored. Didn’t affect the quality of the pork though just a task I didn’t want to have to do and instructions online said ask if you would like skin removed. Won’t stop me buying again though

Lovely piece of meat. Made the most Amazing pulled pork on the Kamado Joe, the family ate themselves to a standstill. Plenty left over for sandwiches the next day and still had enough to freeze for pulled pork sausage rolls when I get round to it.

Smoked it ‘low and slow’ over night on the Big Green Egg. very succulent and easily pulled off the bone, cooked the skin separately in the oven for some pork scratchings!

One of my favourites on the smoker. Low n slow for around 8hrs produces awesome pulled pork every time.

Wow, this was a fantastic piece of meat. I asked for one on the larger side and received one just over 4.1kg. Thankyou Grid Iron, you never fail to please me and it proved to be the best pulled pork to date after a slow cook of 10 hours.
