good day at the belly market

Friday is my meat shop day.
Pretty good day in the belly department.

Sure looks better than my last one!
That pig must have been doing sit-ups.

Nice , what kind of price . Pork has gone up around here , normally I can find a deal or two once in a while . But not lately.

What are your plans for the belly.

it's always $3.99/lb here. not a lot of choice. go to meat place twice a week or so. I keep two on salt for bacon, and when i smoke it, we always have pork belly tacos.

they were the only two in the display that weren't all fat. i go there several times a week to look.

hey were the only two in the display that weren't all fat

Oh, I got it. usually I buy 5-6 of those - if meat/ fat ratio satisfy me....

Just got back from my butcher. They sold the last one but more coming in Monday. They have my order and will call me when they show up. Planning on some good old belly burnt ends next week.

I spend a lot more coin for premium belly even at Costco or Sam's.

Man $3.99 / lb is a steal! Those are meaty too.
