Start with some pork collar

Marinade it in a fermented bean curd sauce over night and then onto the smoker.

Where is the pork collar cut from? Is it near the neck? I have a cut available that we use that is part of the neck and part of the shoulder called copa here in canada.

Exactly where it is from mate. The whole shoulder is usually refereed to a Boston Butt and the upper half is the collar here as a fresh piece of meat or the cured version is the Coppa.
