Don't know if that's a good deal or not. My son who works there just bought a 10 pounder for $8 after his discount. Both the kids are busy cutting it up. Roast the top half, make bacon from the fatty bottom. I told them to look it up online.

Bone in? It's a decent price. Boneless? That's an excellent price.
Chili verde. Cook five or six green peppers into mush... cube and brown your pork... add galic and ONE finely diced potato (thickener) S&P... Optional: 5 or 6 habeneros and three or four jalapenos.
perfection and easy

As Jim said, that's a pretty good price either way. Plus it's hard to go wrong with pork.
I might have to try your recipe for chile verde in our instant pot. Do you ever use tomatillos for the green instead of peppers?

I forgot... you prolly want to dice a white onion up and chuck it in there too.
You can get a can of salsa verdi in the Mexican food section to chuck in as a little cheat too, if you want.

Cut up pork shoulder is basically 'country ribs'.... They are meant for grillin & smokin! I picked up some boneless ones pre cut a couple of weeks ago.... Low and slow (~3 hours @ 200) with smoke (oak,pecan,apple) and dipped in apple juice every 20 minutes makes for some tasty pork! Attachment: 20200621_190519 (Medium).jpg They came out a perfect medium - just a touch of pink left and tender as hell --- just have to cut around the fat and gristle. Definitely a winner --- will grab more when they come around again. Full shoulders/butts are for smokin --- easier to pull the fat and connective tissue out. Freddy's has shoulders for $1.29 this week - they were 0.99 last week - was tempted, but still have smoked pork in the freezer to work thru.... Waiting to see what kind of sales they have for the 4th next week.

Just a heads up ---- I was going thru the store 'preview' ads this morning and QFC says they will have $0.99/# pork butts starting tomorrow.... I'm gonna grab two for the freezer for when I need more!
Gotta grab them when they are this cheap --- I haven't seen them for less than $1.79 forever --- actually have seen them $2.49+ for quite some time.... Last ones I got last fall were $1.29 and I haven't seen them that low since.

Pro tip ---- for some reason, I've seen that the two QFCs by me have a habit of cutting ALL the big butts into 1/2 or 1/3'ds and rewrapping ---- if your store is doing that, be sure to ask at the butcher block if they have full ones in the back/freezer. Never hurts to ask when you are looking for the 'right' size.... I like 7-8#ers.
