Went to Cub today and they were almost out for the day with the butts.  Did get one though.  Going to get a rain check if they are out tomorrow.  When these genious's  write up a ad you would think they would get enough for the ad.  Not the stores fault at all, it's the wharehouse. 

I say butt because that is meat cutters talk.  I'm sure there are employees now in the meat department who don't have a clue on different cuts.  Very few real meat cutters left.  They hire part time kids now to fill the counters and help customers. 

You can call them butts, Boston butts, or pork shoulder it's all the same.  On the label it should say pork shoulder.  Other cuts you can get from a butt besides a roast is country style ribs and pork shoulder steaks.  Bacon from a butt is called cottage bacon. Bacon from a pork loin is called Canadian bacon.  I have made cottage bacon and Canadian bacon many times.  good luck.

And here I thought the reason there were no picnic hams anymore was that millennials were too lazy to go on picnics!  :confused:

Dotch they still sell picnics here and there.  Depends the area the store is located.  Just like Tri tips for example.  Not everyone carry's that cut but some do and they sell well.  We sold lots of picnics both fresh and smoked in the stores in the city's limits.  But the suberban stores you see less of them.  Just like in the city's, things like pig ears, pig tails, pig feet, cow hoves, chicken feet and more odd ball stuff like that sold all the time.  While in the suburbs you dont see much of that.  Picnic's sell well on the holiday's.  good luck.

I appreciate hearing your input RH! I remember my folks buying picnic hams and wondering what the big deal was. Haven't seen one locally in eons. Seem to be lotsa pork steaks & country style ribs though, something we'd get when we had a hog butchered. We had none of it cured. Those cuts weren't that common in the stores back in the day. There can be such a discrepancy in what some of these cuts are called. The leg of lamb cuts are an example of that. Some disagreement locally as to what constitutes a shank & hock roast. Most of the time we split ours so there's what I've always known as a butt & a shank roast. I've heard some of the places are going so far as to call them hams! To me that's terminology reserved for pork.

I went back to Cub and talked to the guy behind the butcher counter. He said that they only got the one truck at the beginning of the sale and were sold out that day. They never got anymore. He told me to go to the register and get a rain check because a new load was going to arrive Monday.

Pipestone is right by Luverne where I grew up.  The meat cutting school was part of the Vo-Tech school there.  Was a real popular class for many years.  They cut up deer too so we brought ours there.  They did a good job and affordable too.  And yes they did close that class up.  I heard it is because there aren't many places that butcher whole animals anymore.  I had a few friends that went there.

Probably small town locker plants are about it for whole animals not in assembly line fashion.   My buddy uses the one in Zumbrota.

Ye Olde Butcher Shoppe here in town will hire you on (tough to get in, though) and you can  work yer way up. Large animal processing, too..deer, elk, etc.

Nothing beats left over venison and mushrooms in gravy over bread (easy on the bread).  Through some good planning on my part this year, I managed to keep venison only from a doe and a young buck.  Normally all the venison gets mixed together as it's processed and split up between those who want venison.  Although quite fair, this results in getting meat from some old rutting bucks.  (Yes, we usually shoot a few of them).  I guess they may figure it out next year and when I say "you go ahead and do what you want with that buck and we will get other deer".   :rotflmao:

Most Cub stores don't get a Sunday night delivery.  So better off going Tuesday.  good luck.

Yup, I probably will be going back on Tuesday. I won't have time on Monday cause I got an appointment for a Lasik evaluation.

Some of the Cub stores are franchises, I don’t know how many. I know the one in Rogers is, at least that is what the manager told me, and the franchises don’t always have, or honor the Cub weekly ad. Example, when Cub had the walleye on sale for $7.99lb a few weeks ago, the Rogers store said I would have to go to the Elk River store because they did not have that sale. That was the third time that has happened to me?

Same here, Coop. That's why I no longer will go there anymore. Ad comes out; went there, mgr says "that's the ad for Mpls/St Paul area"...yet it was in our local weekly shopper. He refused to honor it.Happened a second time, they were out, and wouldn't give me a raincheck. I walked outta there and have never been back.
