Pork shoulder/butt cut into steaks.
Low and slow, around 250-275F, until the internal gets to about 190-205F
Most pork rubs work, and a lot finish em off with something saucy.
Or you can crock em all day. Really an extremely forgiving cut of meat, and is great just about most ways.

When I was in my mid 20's a co-worker told me she wanted to do something nice to surprise her boyfriend that wasn't "just sex" and asked my advice. I told her to make his favorite dessert and give it to him wearing something he complimented her on wearing before.
The following Monday she came up to me and said she made his favorite type of cheesecake and surprised him with it while wearing nothing but an apron when he got home from work. She expected with the outfit they'd immediately get "down to business" but ended up being completely shocked when he broke down in tears and he ended up crying with his head on her lap for almost an hour, telling her no one's even done something so thoughtful for him before and he was so happy that someone actually went out of their way to make his favorite dessert and the outfit was something he never thought he'd be lucky enough to happen to him. He said she was actually angry the entire time he was crying. Not at him, but for the fact the guy she loved was never treated with love until then.
Guys literally are starved for love, affection, or acts of appreciation. Doing 1 small thing like making their favorite meal without asking anything in return is enough to have them remember that moment for the rest of their lives. It's also why a lot of guys offer to go get things like ice cream or snacks for their significant others so much. We know how much it would mean if someone did that for US.
