Snagged one in Rural Hall yesterday and wife picked up two in Pfafftown this morning. In both instances the cases were bare. Wife said she got the last two and after talking with the meat dept manager - they “should” be getting more.but didn’t know when.

I got curious and went to the grocery store, plenty of bread, plenty of milk, no eggs (the manager said that they have been short on eggs because the warehouse has been short), and plenty of of Boston butts at full price. I don’t understand the desire fore a Boston Butt.

Can you air fry a Boston butt? Trying new recipes but unsure about it.

Crock Pot 8hrs on high. Remove the bone with tongs. Carefully remove the meat to a pan that will drain the meat. The meat will be fall apart tender. Let rest a few mins. Put meat in another pan to pull apart. Season with desired seasoning immediately while meat is still hot. Viola !
This can be done inside during bad weather or while working, whatever.
Another option:
Place Boston butt in heavy tin foil turkey pan. Inject with desired juices. Apply desired rub all over butt. Cover and place in pre-heated oven for 12 hrs at 200°F.
Remove from oven and finish like above except while pulling meat apart, add the same rub you applied to outside of meat. The heat will break down the rub and flavor the meat.

These are two ways to have Boston butt pulled pork with an "inside" option. Simply takes weather and access to a smoker out of the equation.

I don’t have a big enough vac sealer, but with a half a butt, I’ll sear it hard on the Webber first then seal it with onions, peppers, jalapeños, garlic, tomatoes, tomatillos and cilantro to sous vide for tacos.
