The phrase âa chip on oneâs shoulderâ is reported as originating with the nineteenth century U.S. practice of spoiling for a fight by carrying a chip of wood on oneâs shoulder, daring others to knock it off. This suggested derivation has more than the whiff of folk-etymology about it.
^ +1 Like AAWA said above... The cushion comes from the Pork Shoulder Picnic (Arm). The picnic shoulder is more economical than the Boston Butt, but it also contains more fat than the blade shoulder. When the bone and fat is trimmed an cooked it results in a very rich flavorful piece of meat. The meat from this cut is excellent for making juicy smoked pulled pork. The Picnic has a large bone and joint that runs through the middle of the roast, but one side has a large lean muscle, hence called the cushion.
