rossislider Report post Posted October 18, 2015 Most meat shops (not grocery stores) sell it. Problem is most want $2 or more per pound which is absurd for what is essentially throw away scraps. I prefer mixing pork fat rather than beef fat, so I'd go one of two routes. 1.Bacon-At Walmart you can buy a 3 pound pack of bacon end cuts and scraps for around $7. This grinds great with your game and is about what most places want for fat scraps. 2.Pork butt roasts-They have a really high fat content which is why they are so great for smoking. Watch the sales and you can usually pick them up for about $1 per pound. Last week restaurant depot had them on sale for $1.09 per pound for boneless butt roasts. My buddy and I picked up a 70 pound case for our upcoming deer and elk hunts. It grinds great with game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
