Pork Shoulder, Raw
Pork shoulder is a flavorful, moderately fatty cut sourced from the upper front leg of the hog, characterized by significant marbling and connective tissue. This tough cut becomes exceptionally tender through slow-cooking methods like braising or smoking, making it ideal for pulled pork dishes and stews. While higher in fat than leaner cuts like tenderloin, its collagen-rich composition provides ample protein and transforms into gelatin during prolonged cooking for succulent results.
