<![CDATA[Pork Belly Prices...]]>Found some pork belly locally from where I usually purchase it. $5.99/lb I told them thanks but no thanks. They had is sliced in the counter for $6.39!

What are most people paying now for pork belly? I can by good already cured bacon for $4ish a pound at Sam’s club.

I know I can make better bacon than the stuff you buy, but dang I ain’t spending that much! Last I bought to cure was under $3/lb. I know it’s went up, but wow!

Ok. Rant over.

PapaSop don’t forget the stream coupon, and maybe you can keep a few things on that list

Yep. I did use it and got down to $138.00. Thanks. Will wait on that “big” ticket item I had in there. Perhaps will get a little luv during the upcoming sales events.

Well… Just finished my shopping list. Wow!
$1300.78. Think it’s time to take a breath and reevaluate this. LOL
There’s just so many “things”. Hmm.

Been all over town today and called a few out of town. Lowest price I found was $4.49lb. Local Sam’s no longer carry bellies. All the butcher shops were at $4.99. May just pick up a few pounds just because I want to try my own bacon.
Anyway, putting in a Walton’s order today. Going to get the dry rub cure and a couple hangers.

Meanwhile you just have to salivate and let those images run around your mind thinking of things to come, LOL.

I didn’t realize they had been sitting so long in in the bottom of the chest freezer. They held up well since they were vacuum seal from the factory and at the very bottom. Made a maple sugar cured and a corned cure bacon. The corned one will end up a a pastrami bacon. I’ll lull them November 15 and put the smoke to both just before I have to head for Vegas for a conference for a couple of days. I still have 15 lbs. of bellies left in the freezer bank.

Harvested 2 of 5 over the weekend. These girls were about a year old and had an amazing fat cap.

Still have to finish cutting and wrapping, but since it’s 35 degrees here in SE WI they can hang around until I get to them. There will be more pics to come.

Used the folding table leg extenders like PapaSop , thanks for that, it was a real back saver.

You are better to make the drive. We only need to go to those stores occasionally, but you live in paradise every day.

The closest store is 6 miles in what used to be the small town of Yelm where they only used to have one traffic light, now no more.

Ill keep both cards for awhile. One of the problems with COSTCO for us is its the only one around. At peak hours its packed. Sam’s can get busy at times, but my closest one is only 5 miles and the other two are about 10 and 15 miles away in opposite directions. The COSTCO is over 15. Im surprised they haven’t opened a second one near here based on the business they do. The next closest is about an hour away.

One was located at a Super Mall that pretty much went out the door when the Sam’s left.

Of course the Costco’s are all about the same drive away between 24 and 30 miles and within that range there are at least five. Sam’s pulled out of the entire state maybe five years ago for reasons unknown.

My local Sam’s is about as clean as a dirty Wal-Mart, it’s also a pain in the butt to get to.

The one and only Sams Club on Long Island while close to me is also not very good. Costco and BJ’s are all over the place here. We have 3 Costcos within 10 miles of each other and the same with BJ’s. I’m a member of Costco & BJ’s. While both are very similar there are enough differences to warrant both memberships.
