Dinner Ideas for Boston Pork Butt Steaks
Boston butt steaks are highly versatile slices of pork shoulder. There are as many ways to cook the fat-marbled meat as the there are ingredients that pair well with it. However you cook this cut, check that the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure proper cooking. Allow the steaks to rest, if applicable, for three minutes to give the pork time to finish cooking and allow the juices to cool enough so that they stay in the meat when it’s cut.
Classic Barbecue Dinner
-
Break out the grill to create a classic barbecue dinner with Boston butt steaks. Season the steaks with salt, ground black pepper and garlic powder. Grill the steaks until almost done, and then brush with your favorite barbecue sauce. Alternatively, simmer a mixture of tomato sauce, liquid smoke, honey, chili powder, onion powder, garlic salt and ground black pepper to create your own sweet and smoky barbecue sauce. Place the steaks on a piece of foil and grill until done. Serve the pork with barbecue sauce, grilled sweet corn and potato salad for a mix of spicy and sweet flavors.

Pan-sear your pork shoulder steaks to give them a crispy finish that helps hold the juices inside the meat. Sprinkle the raw pork with a light layer of your favorite steakhouse seasoning, or mix smoked chipotle powder, sweet paprika powder, ground cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, dried oregano, smoked salt and ground black pepper to create your own spicy steakhouse blend. Sear both sides of each steak to create a brown crust. Saute or bake the steaks to finish cooking the inside. Pair the pork with steakhouse fries and a garden salad with ranch dressing for a hardy dinner with a creamy touch.
Cajun Style Baked Dinner

Bake pork butt steaks with a complex blend of peppery seasonings to create a Cajun-style dinner. Sprinkle the steaks with cayenne pepper, ground white pepper, ground black pepper, ground cumin, garlic salt and fresh thyme. Bake the steaks, turning halfway through the cooking time so that both sides brown. Serve the steaks with red beans and rice for a traditional Cajun meal or try them with a jalapeno and sweet corn salad for a spicy twist.

Stew butt steaks with tomatoes and herbs to turn plain meat into a flavorful centerpiece for an Italian-style dinner. Cut the steaks into cubes and brown on all sides in a frying pan. Transfer the meat and juices to a stew pot, slow cooker or Dutch oven.
