Pork back fat is our there to be had. I've gotten it from my local Haggen grocery this year and also direct from a local farm in La Conner (Messman Farm). Messman's was more expensive, but is organic and I was able to buy exactly the amount I needed in small frozen vac packed units. Haggen was quite a bit cheaper, but they packaged up 5 pounds after I specifically asked for 2 for a small batch of sausage.

Rindless pork belly at Costco. Slice some fat off with a fillet knife and smoke what's left for no-nitrate bacon.

I've been taking a whole belly, smoking it for 2-3-4 hours and then cutting in small chunks and freezing it. Thaw out a chunk, slice it thin and slowly fry until crisped up a bit......then dropping 3 eggs into the rendered lard. The way breakfast used to get cooked back in The Day.

Sorry, pork gets me all chatty.

Some butchers act like it's the rarest thing on earth and how could they possibly get by if they just sold their fat to the public. Then some butchers are like why wouldn't we have pork fat it's kinda my job.
