The cracklin thread has me wanting to get back into making my own. Where do you guys find skin-on pork belly? I used to buy from Emmett's in Harahan but they closed a few years ago. Lately I've just been buying from Costco but they only have pork belly without skin. Bonus if they have whole deli sized bologna as well.

Friend,

We think the best butcher in the city is at Dorignac's. Zuppardo's is good as well. Uncle occasionally gets Cajun meats at Gourmet Butcher Block on the West Bank, and they are very good. I have not tried Chris Specialty Foods in Lakeview, but have heard it is good. We do not give our money to Piece of Meat.

Yours,
TulaneLSU

Hog jowls make really good cracklin FWIW. Cut them into 1/4 inch strips.
