I am going to venture and try cooking a pork butt.
I live in Houston, TX on the North side near Willowbrook Mall area.

Is there someone that can tell me where to purchase one and about what size is good for cooking.

Thanks
Roy

Not familiar with your area but I cook 6-8 pound ones. The bigger they are the longer they take to cook. :wink:

Gotta Sam's in there somewhere? If you have to go to the store, try to find one that is not enhanced, if possible. If it is, consider not using, at least much, of a rub with salt. 6-8 lbs. is a good size.

At Sam's, or anywhere they are in cryovac, there will be two butts. It will look like one giant 14-16 lb'er.

The advert that came in the mail this week for food town had picnics for 88cents/#, if I recall. If there's one in your area try that.
