Shoulder minus the trotter ? I am scared to post this coz I think it's the wrong cut of pork :( here goes...

I'm no expert, but thats definitely a pork shoulder. I think you got more than is traditionally cut here in US. The spine and part of a rib section look to be included in your cut. I think you got the entire shoulder quarter rather than what is traditionally presented in our stores/butchers. Check out wiser men/women than I below.

Heres a lot more detail, provided by our very own TVWBB.
