Prolly do duck confit next time.

  Going to Atlanta in October so..maybe I can pick up the fixins..

Maybe bring some to the Nov gathering.

OK. You're in Ponce de Leon -- where is this slaughter house? Pinellas county, where I live, is way too grown up to have a place like you describe and I know I'm going to have to travel on occasion to pick up "stuff". I may have to make road trips to visit a BBQ buddy in Marianna and pick up pork related "stuff". 
 
Here ya go!!

Yes sir!! It is a very ummmmmm "rustic" place. Very old building out there in nowhere land.. I had a great time finding it.

Mr Smith has been in the family business for a long time..kinda like Pops...hehehehehe cept Pops has all his teeth.

I wish I had taken the camera with me.. Y'all would love the place.

I will take it next time..

 Have a great day!!

Thank you for this. I am going to have to make this.

Do you think if I rendered down the fat from pork butts it would work the same?

We had the last of this a few months ago.

With the onset of type2 diabetes I doubt I will make it again...well maybe I will.

It takes 5 pounds of fat to make enough lard for what I did.

If I had a big bag of butt fat I would prolly try it.

Ruhlman sez the different kinds of fat give different tastes.

Have fun!!!!
