What can I do with a Pork Butt?

Make Garlicky Pork Butt

I Like Big Pork Butts

All together now lets rap,

“I like big pork butts and I can not lie
You vegetarians can’t deny
That’s when Farmer Dave walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a pork butt roast in your face
You get hungry!”
Yours truly,
Mrs. Mix-A-Bunch
