Butcher's Cuts

Looking for opinions here, from both sides of the Atlantic here.

All of the online resources for low & slow are from the US, but it seems that wherever you are in the world, animals are butchered differently, with different names for each cut. I'm wondering if anyone this side of the pond (particularly the UK and Ireland) has information on how to translate various cuts, for instance, what is a Boston Butt known as over here, or what would be the closest corresponding cut?

Thanks guys
Ed
 
Welcome Ed.

A Boston Butt is known in UK as a Bone-In Pork Shoulder, or, you can get a Boneless Rolled Shoulder.
 
Thanks Bob, and Tony. It's useful to know what to ask for in the butcher's, this way I don't risk the wrath of a cantankerous local butcher
