I've had a hard time relying on the regional grocers for specific cuts of meat.
I've messaged many farms that supply Nickels, Fat City, Juliannas, etc. I usually get a "yeah we can with special order." but the moment I ask for pricing it goes unread. I really want to stay local.
Mostly looking for brisket/beef ribs and pork belly/shoulders and ribs.
Have any of us gone to a local farm with store front and had much luck?
I enjoy using the smoker when I can and don't want to use the national sellers like Snake River or Omaha Steaks. It's frustrating at this point. The local market doesn't seem to accommodate.
