Pork Belly

[Ah Pook]

Brings the nom!

Who sells it? Looking from Longmont to North Denver.

[Invader zim]

Try my butcher frank in Longmont. They should have them or will order you some. Is it bacon time?

[GilpinGuy]

Believe it or not, you can order pork bellies right from the butcher at the B&F. I think his name is Scott, and he was awesome to deal with. Very good pricing and decent bellies too. I get mine from Harvest Meats in Central City: (303) 333-0189 I think a case is the minimum order - 100 lbs. or so.

Let me know if you want a good bacon recipe. Nom nom nom......

Yes it is "Bacon Time" . I have done a couple different buckboard bacon out of pork butts, and going to try a couple slabs of pork belly now.
I would like to see you bacon recipe Gilp.

Well if you are willing to hit Wheat Ridge I believe Edwards Meats carries them, on 44th & Ward Road.
Highly recommend their shop

Edwards is a good shop. I used to go there often when I lived in the area. However, they quoted me over $5 a pound for pork bellies which is outragous. That's more than double what you should be paying.

Pork prices arent as high as this time last year but pigs aren't cheap. It's outside of your area, but give Innovative Foods a call. Anyplace like Edwards or markets are buying on the open market and probably don't do enough volume to get a good break. How much are you wanting?

[lostcolorado]

Not from your area but try a Mexican or asian grocery store. Pork belly is a standard item.

H mart in aurora and Westminster stock it.

Highly recommend their shopEdwards can be a bit expensive but it is so nice to go into a shop that cares. Luckily for me I'm about 10 minutes away and much of their meat had ended up on my smoker.

Bought some at Costco in Parker today. The other Costco's I called in Sheridan and Quincy are not carrying during the holidays as too many other things to display.

"July 30, 2011:
CHICAGO — This city’s market for the pork belly, a commodity nearly everyone seemed to have heard of but only a small, close-knit fraternity truly understood, is no more."

So, my intended suggestion of buying a futures contract and letting it expire, thereby having the bellies delivered to your address, is not going to work!
Good Luck!

Thought this was a thread with the inside track on some commodities trading. Guess I have been looking at BMT too long.

I liked their shop, but their prices are ri-goddamn-diculous. Got pork belly at the Costco on 92nd for 2.85/lb.

While we're talking about pork bellies, does anyone have a line on a place where I could get the bellies with some some loin attached? I was thinking about trying to make British-style rashers ...
