Pork <u>chops</u> can be rolled and roasted to make steaks. Pork <u>shoulder</u> is a tough cut of meat that people often cure or smoke.
Explanation:
Pork chops or rib chops are sold bone-in and are cut from the shoulder end of the loin. Their high fat content makes them tender, flavourful and less prone to drying out during cooking. On the other hand, pork butt that actually comes from the shoulder is a rich, flavourful cut is tough and fatty, so it needs to be slow roasted, stewed, or braised in an oven or slow cooker to coax out the tenderness.
