| Salt pork is (surprise, surprise) pork belly preserved with salt. It looks
to be from roughly the same part of the animal as bacon. It's widely
available in supermarkets in New England, usually in the same section as
bacon. I think the curing process is different from bacon--I don't think
salt pork is smoked. If I had to do a substitution, though, I'd use bacon.

| .1 is correct, it's essentially bacon that isn't smoked. I agree that
bacon would be a good substitute.

| Hi,
Thanks for the replies. I haven't seen it in groceries stores here
(Colorado) but maybe I just have overlooked it.

Fargo's Pizza.

Around here at least, fat back is different in that it's practically
all fat, unlike salt pork and bacon which have both lean and fat.

| The salt pork I've seen in New England is almost all fat.

Maybe it was mis-labelled fat-back. :-)
The salt pork around here (when you can find it--fat back is more common)
is about half lean, half fat.

P.S. Oh, "here" is Baltimore Maryland.

| As far as finding it in Colorado, I have purchased it at both Safeway and
King Soopers. Even the Safeway in Monument carries it. But just try to find
Ham Hocks. I've searched many stores in this area and cannot find them.

But the Safeway in Monument is a palace - it's nicer than most other
grocery stores in town :)
Try M&M Meats on Hancock in the little, ratty strip mall about 1.5 blocks
north of Fillmore (same shopping center as OEM electronic parts). It's
between the school and Fillmore (east side).

| Hi,
I wrote the original note. I did find the Salt Pork in King Soopers
in Colorado Springs. Thanks! However, I decided to not buy it and
use turkey bacon instead - came out great.
