This is my reply to another posting.
<blockquote id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">If anyone has a reference to something that explains what the various cuts of beef and pork that are regularly mentioned on the forum are I would appreciate it, suppose there is some regional variation in the U.S and Canada in any case?
<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">AND
<blockquote id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">Think JJC posted on the forum about doing a list at some stage, would be VERY helpful to a rookie UK smoker!<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">

JJC would sure be the person to handle this one. Now what I thought I would do once JJC is finished (if he takes this on) is to take his work up into a clickable graphic.

What I mean by clickable graphic can be seen in this USDA Hardiness Zone Map that I created for my gardening friends: http://www.susanminor.org/garden/map/ Click on any area of that map and it expands that area.

The basic idea is to have a large drawing(s) of a hog etc.. With all of the names a cut is called on each respective section of the drawing. Next when clicked on that section a real picture of that cut would enlarge just like it does when you click on the USDA Hardiness Zone Map. Maybe a little over kill but it sure would add a nice touch to our collection.

Of course this would depend upon JJC and the information supplied to him by the members here from there respective countries.

This is do-able. How does this idea sit with you all?

Hi Oldman,

Excellent idea!

Jaegar posted some very helpful websites in his reply to my original posting but to have something readily available along the lines of your idea would be really beneficial.

thanks,

Manxman.

I'll be happy to take that on. I've alrady collected some stuff from members on another thread, anmd I'll need to do some rersearch, of course, since I'm a "application specialist" when it comes to meat-eating--I have no idea what part of the animal muscle it comes from, I just know if a like it or not [:p][:)]

Might take me a few days to a week . . .

Hi JJC,

The British equivalent cuts of meat for Lamb, Beef and Pork can be found at:

http://www.britishbarbecue.co.uk

or a more direct one is:

http://www.oscarenterprises.f2s.com/main_page_meat.html

I notice this site actually refers to a "Boston Style Butt", perhaps the international boundaries are merging on cuts of meat!!!

JJC,
No worries Mate, as one of my down under gaming friends use to say....

Take your time this is not going to be an easy project. I've looked over some of what you have to glean and I'm saying to myself....yep JJC is the man for this job.

Oh your poor head~~ [:D]
