Older thread but the holidays are coming so my pork butt favorite.
Local groceries often have pork butts under $1.00 a lb. !
I have the butcher cut butt in half (no charge!) and I cook one cheek at a time and freeze one. :)
I put in the crock pot at 8 am with fat side up topped with one large onion sliced and add a half bottle of Italian Dressing. Set temp 280-300* and it is ready about 5 pm.
It is fall apart tender!
Let left overs cool, put in fridge and the fat can be removed from the top easily.
I have even froze portions for later meals.
