I bought it a while back when it was .99c/lb, boned it, and stuck it in the freezer.

Now's the time to smoke it, I think. I know it isn't a butt, but there must be some use for it.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks, Rich

I was thinking since it was a leg that it would have a fair amount of connective tissue.

An alternative would be to cure it and make ham or even tasso.

I would defer to KyNola on the tasso.

Saying its a boneless pork leg I would cure it and make a ham out of it.

The ham doesn't have as much connective tissue as the shoulder. I would cure it and smoke it. It may be easier to handle if you separate the shank from the butt. You could also brine and cook it fresh.

My wife was brushing her teeth when I read this one to her and she almost swallowed her tooth brush.....
