About Pork butt
Pork butt, despite its name, comes from the upper part of a pig’s shoulder and is a popular cut for slow-cooking and barbecuing. Known for its marbling and rich flavor, pork butt is commonly used in cuisines worldwide, especially in American barbecue traditions for pulled pork and smoked dishes. It is a good source of protein and contains essential vitamins and minerals, including B vitamins, zinc, and selenium. However, pork butt is also high in fat, particularly saturated fat, so portion control is key for those watching their fat intake. While its structure makes it ideal for moist, tender preparations, healthier cooking methods like roasting or braising without added fats can reduce calorie content. Pork butt is a versatile cut that balances indulgence with nutritional value when enjoyed mindfully within a balanced diet.
