Picnic Ham Meat from the upper part of the foreleg of the hog, including a portion of the shoulder. It is not a true ham, but a less expensive substitute for regular ham, although less tender in texture.
picnic ham = picnic shoulder = pork shoulder picnic ham Notes: This is cured like a ham, but cut from the hog's shoulder. It's not as tender and lean as a true ham, and it cooks much quicker.
Containing more fat than the blade Boston roast, a well trimmed arm roast provides a very rich flavor when roasted. It is often smoked and referred to as a picnic ham, although it is not a true ham.
