Hello, i come with a question and offer my smoked (and briefly on fire) chicken thighs as an offering. Are meat cuts all cut the same? More info.
I figured id ask /meats before i ask /smoking but if i just look up a tutorial about how to do X and Y with a cut of Z, all the info should be the same whether they got it from meat shop A or B or C right?

What? I mean if it’s the same cut from a different location it should be the same. If it’s a different cut, ie brisket compared to ribs cook times and temps can vary. Often times it will change based on the size of the cut as well. Also like chicken thighs compared to breasts are also different because white meat is generally more dry, but breads are much lager then thighs. Also it can change if it’s bone in or boneless.

Worth noting those Hormel butts (and their ribs) are injected with a salt solution and I try to avoid them. First you are paying for water and second they can turn out a bit “hammy” in taste/texture.
