Ask the grocery store if they can order one. Most can and will.

I did. They can get them of course. I'm just trying to do a little shopping around. Just wondering if anyone has a go to.

I forget but I think Saia wanted between 2 and 3 bucks a pound

Whole pigs aren’t cheap. Since the pig doesn’t have time to grow and put on more weight (which means more money), they charge more to make a profit.

If you find one less than $3 per pound, get it.

Associated Grocers stores in BR has always ordered them for me in the past. I believe there are some AG stores on the north shore. Rouses, the “local” people, left the BR company and now pull from an Alabama warehouse.

You can check with Scariano and see if they sell to the public.

Membership required. You have to have a LLC / LA Business License.

If you can get a pig from Saias for less than $3 a pound, buy that.
