I'd rethink that. Shoulder/picnic is a great cut.

If by shoulder you mean Boston butt then I’m with you. This is a great cut of pork. My opinion is still a picnic is still not worth working with for projects such as this. Maybe your pork cuts are better than available here. Some say a picnic has a better taste but with all the sauces used here on pork I don’t think anyone could every taste a difference, pulled pork. For a straight up small ham type taste and texture you are better off with the Boston butt. Of course the correct cut is just to big to try and I’ll leave that to the professionals.

I’m just as confuse as you with the nomenclature of the pig parts. Even over here everyone as a different name for the same parts. Depends on what part of the country you live in. I love pork shanks, lamb is better, but my butcher wasn’t quite sure exactly what I was talking about when trying to order some. They are hard to come by. I try going by pictures on the internet and that isn’t fool proof. Case in point.
