Lean Boston Butt, also known as pork shoulder, is a flavorful cut of meat commonly used in American BBQ cuisine but also adaptable to dishes ranging from Latin Carnitas to Asian stir-fries. Unlike traditional Boston Butt, which contains more fat, this leaner version is trimmed for reduced fat content, making it a healthier choice for those seeking lower-calorie options. It’s rich in protein, iron, and essential B vitamins like B6 and B12, supporting energy production and muscle health. While lean Boston Butt has less fat, it does retain some marbling, contributing to tender, juicy textures when cooked. In moderation, it can be an excellent addition to a balanced diet. However, cooking methods like roasting or grilling are healthier alternatives to frying or heavy sauces that can add excess calories and sodium. Ideal for meal prep, this cut brings both nutrition and versatility to your plate.
