I'm from Australia and have just started getting into BBQ well your version the aussie version of BBQ is fast direct heat.
I'm now trying low and slow.
Thanks, Going pretty well at the moment. It is a bit difficult to find the same cuts that US has as low and slow BBQ isn't massive here yet but there are now a few cooking comps and people like me are getting interested and keen to learn.
Another Aussie BBQer here. Yeah some of the cuts can be a bit tricky to find.
I printed out pics / diagrams of the brisket from the site and take them to my butcher and he can usually provide if he's got a cow in the back.
Haven't found Pork Butt here but Scotch works well.
Costco have something called Pork Collar Butt (Scotch) that also works well. Not too sure what it is. I asked Meathead once and he seemed to think maybe it was the money muscle but seems to big for that.

Hi nik09! Welcome to this place we call The Pit. 3 things Americans get right is real southern BBQ, the Corvette, and Samuel Adams Boston Lager. [bring on the hate about Chevrolet now...]
Huskee - few are the folks that don't respect the Corvette, Chevy fan or not. I think you'll get more push back on Sam Adams. ;-) I personally have no problem with any of the trinity you mention.
