My partner and I will be moving this fall to SF. I am going to definitly miss Chicago's vast array of unique food shopping experiences (not going to miss the weather, thats for sure!)
One of the gems I've come to love and rely upon during BBQ season (which really is all year round IMO) is Peoria Packing, on Lake St. As anyone who has completed Prof. Wiviott's Five Step Program, this is a one stop shop for all things piggy to be smoked.
Does anyone know of any such store in SF or Oakland, or some of the surrounding suburbs? It will probably be tough to duplicate that store, but I hope to find a source for bulk ribs, hot links and pork shoulder!
Thanks!!
Joel
