the area of the front leg between the hocks and the Boston Butt (pork butt roast). For information on the smoked and cured variety, see Picnic Ham. This is a sizable cut that is frequently cooked whole, skin-on and bone-in, and it makes for a really good roast. Any chef will tell you there is a ton of taste close to the bone in this rather lean cut of meat with gobs of flesh and huge bones across the middle.
If you have recipes that call for skin (the entire underside of the unit in the photo is covered with skin), the Picnic Shoulder is also a really intriguing item to split out.
