Local Bacon Deal

[jcam222]

I know making it yourself is best but I still end up using plenty from the store too. Local meat shop had #2 quality natural hardwood smoked no liquid smoke cases on sale. 10 lbs for $20. Grabbed 20 lbs. Roughly 17 lbs of slices albeit some really wide and 3 lbs pieces and ends. Super happy with it. May go buy more lol. Broke it all down into 1 lbs packs and vacuum sealed. Here’s some of it. Bags were a tad short so I curled it and made them work. Didn’t feel like messing with the sealer rolls

Nice score . All kinds of uses for that . I like the ends and pieces for added grind to sausage . Nurnberg brats . Fantastic .
I buy most all my bacon from GFS .

Heck of a score! I been buying at braums lately. They dropped there price to $4.5 lb. I need find reason to drive south again. Trader Joe's still had $3 eggs last time down there and they where really good. That is where that Champion juicer is for $85 but not sure I ready to jump down that rabbit hole yet!

Probably not good for weaves or poppers but darn near everything else.

Yep bacons outta sure lately and so is belly. Just found a local steady source of big beautiful brown eggs at a local farm $2.50 per dozen. Huge eggs and a lot of double yolk.

Nice score Jeff!

Weaves have evolved into more than a covering for a fatty.

A half pound of bacon BLT. Ummm good.

Damn that looks tasty. I’m baking some bacon for burgers right now. Between the smell and your pics it’s maddening!! Lol

That's a sweet deal Jeff. Wish I could find that around here.

Sure was surprised by the price! They had 40 lbs cases of thighs for $45 , 5 lbs of store ground 80/20 chuck and shank $3.99 / lbs 5 lbs minimum (daily price) Virginia deli ham $3.99 and hard salami $3.99. Lots of other deals.

 

[mneeley490]

Nice price! Bellies this morning at Costco were $3.99 lb.
I still buy store bacon to use for wrapping meats. It's usually thinner and more stretchy than what I make at home.

 

[Fueling Around]

Sweet deal Jeff.
10# is what a couple month's supply for you?

 

[tbern]

Awesome price, congrats!

 

[Brokenhandle]

Wow! Great price! We still buy some store bought bacon if we find a deal... wife likes making bacon bits to have in the freezer.

Me too. And their bacon is pretty darn good.

 

[Gonna Smoke]

What a deal Jeff, I'd be all over that!! Isn't bacon one of the 5 main food groups?

 

[DRKsmoking]

Great deal Jeff,
We use store bought often as I have not made my own bacon yet, well not counting Back Bacon

If I found that price , I would stock up the freezer also.

So many uses so little time
