From Porter Road, I bought 5 Pigskets. This one was 2 lbs., cooked on pellet grill at 250 for 5 hours until internal at 202. Seasoned with dry brine of Oakridge Bbq Spogos for 24 hours and then rub down with Worcestireshire and seasoned with Hank's KC. I didn't wrap, but will next time to speed up the cook. The flavor was delicious. At $21.00 a piece, not a great value, but a truly unique taste. Four of them were 1.67 lbs. to 2.2 lbs., one was only 1.25 lbs., so that gets a little expensive.

I love that little cut but have to agree, the bang for the buck doesnโt justify ordering it too often. Thanks for posting though, makes me want to order one!! ๐Comment

Thanks for posting this. I have one sitting in the freezer that I also got from Porter Road. Looking forward to the cook & tasking it. I think I may try Jeremy Yoder smoke pork lard wrap experiment when I do my cook.Comment

This and the beef osso buco are the two unique cuts I find at Porter Road that I can't normally find in my local stores. The osso buco is phenomenal prepared using the Porter Road recipe, in a dutch oven. I love the pork brisket, and have a couple in the freezer, but its not a good value to be honest.
I am not a fan of charging a flat fee per the piece, versus charging by the pound. If one piece is 1.25# and another is 2.15#, that is some wild variation in value/cost per pound.Last edited by jfmorris; September 3, 2021, 07:27 AM.Comment
