By either a whole bone in ham or butt portion. All grocery retailers have them. The shank portion will have less meat, will probably be smaller and often times a little cheaper per pound than the butt portion. Picnics are not true hams. They are a part of the shoulder...just under the Boston butt that is cured like a whole/butt/shank portion. When one BBq's a pork shoulder it's the uncured whole shoulder that includes the butt and picnic in one piece.

One term I didn't see him mention is "fresh ham." A fresh ham is uncured. It will cook like a pork roast. It's still good smoked and glazed, but it's not going to be the pink, sweet, salty ham you get from the deli, unless you cure it yourself.
Very good point here.
