I read somewhere about pork collar and am not familiar with it. Has anyone cooked one? Would it be treated like a pork butt and can it be used for pulled pork?

JR.
Yes. Treat it like a pork butt. L&S. Quite popular here in UK. There is a lot of intramuscular fat which is perfect for L&S. Very, very tasty.

Interesting JR, I was just reading about pork collar too! They look very interesting indeed. I will have a chat with my butcher about them.
Snake river farms offers them.....for a price!

That's where I saw it too Tim. Let me know what your butcher says. We don't have many real butchers here. Feel free to PM me. Thanks.

Were down to maybe three in the area, I've gotten to know the closest one fairly well, I will let you know what Ernie and Eric have to say about price, it won't be as "fawncy" as SRF but, it will probably be pretty darned delicious!

Pork Collar / Pork Neck
For me, unbeatably the best pork cut for L&S - here in Europe.
Here are some pictures

I am with you all on pork neck (collar).
I find it one of the nicest cur,s, esp the chops for the braai. They don't get dry, bcause of the spread of the fat (if you know what I mean).

The bigger cuts work great low and slow
