That's what I do too. Oven cook a pork butt slowly in a covered dutch
oven. Barely any seasoning... I've decided I don't like a "rub" on it
because I don't like the sugar or the chili powder; so I dry roast it
with salt & pepper, garlic and thyme. When I want to change it up, I
use a little beer or apple juice to braise it at the same slow pace.
All of the above are delicious (AFAIC) and the finished pork pulls
beautifully. I buy the biggest pork butt I can find, which is not
much more than 3+ pounds. For some reason, the bigger ones only seem
to come in packages of two and I don't even see that very often.
