That's a heck of a good price. I don't think my local one has that sale, though.

wow.... the restaurant depot here is members only (need tax ID, etc.). wish I could get in there, as it would really save me on some cuts (brisket is 8.99 at Costco here, and I can't find a pork belly for cheaper than 4.99/lb).

Bought 120 lbs of fresh skinned pork bellies @ 1.86$ a pound yesterday at Houston RD

I just checked my local Seattle area RD flyer. Skin-on bellies are $1.49 lb. right now.

wish my costcos in my area carried bellies... because for that price I'd pick up a few every year.

oh well.

Made a special trip to the Aurora Village Costco for bellies. Yep, $1.99 lb for skinless. I bought 2, about 10 lbs each. Nicely trimmed and squared, good meat/fat ratio. 

While I was there, I also picked up about 10 lbs of ground pork for $2.89 lb for sausages, and some 88/12 ground beef for $3.79 lb. The ground beef was already portioned out into rounds for hamburger patties as well. Guess what we're having for dinner tonight?

More and more Costcos are stocking bellies. Have them check other stores.

I did. The 2 closest to me do not. I actually have 8 stores within 45 minutes of me.

Bacon was outstanding. Aging a pancetta tests in box now
