John Belvedere Bagged loin and sirloin were $1.88 lb at Winco yesterday. I’m going to pick some of both up tomorrow to make Canadian bacon out of the loins and Pressed reconstructed hams out of the sirloins.

Deepwoodsbutcher $4.99 at hyvee

processhead yes, belly is the money cut on a hog. We buy while hogs, but the family is wanting more belly bacon.

Guess i got an average deal. My old boss got me 60#s at his cost ($3.59 this week). He can get them cheaper sometimes too he said.

I wish I knew more about the economics that affect commodity retail price variations like the belly prices we are comparing here.
I think about all the hogs that are raised and processed in the Midwest and then see retail store prices that are as high or higher than average prices elsewhere. Apparently transportation costs are not much of a factor if you can get cheap pork bellies in Washington? -

processhead We have an IBP pork and beef processing plant here in Washington, they do raise a lot of pork here as well. The prices vary with the sources here. Costco was selling prime brisket packers for $3.09 lb. on Monday when I was there. If I had the space in the freezer, I might have bought a couple. The 88/12 ground beef was going for $4.99, no rhyme or reason

No rhyme or reason to be sure. Take advantage of those opportunities while you can.
