In our state (neb) we have custom butchers. These are usually in smaller towns, but can be found in yellow pages as custom butchers. Some individuals that have pork butchered will not have their lard rendered by the butcher and the butcher may have that available for purchase. If you know individuals that do have their animals custom slaughtered, you could inquire if they have the fat rendered and if they don't you could ask that they give or let you buy it at the time. They usually do it up in 5 lb. buckets. I would think any meat market that slaughters their own animals would be a source of lard or suet.

As for using it, it's hard to have a failure with a pie crust with it. I agree with one of the responders, fried chicken is better with lard.

On other rendered fat that has not been mentioned is chicken fat. When I butchered my own chickens I saved and rendered the fat and used it for cookies. It has a special shortness that makes a tastier cookie than butter cookies. It has a much lower melting point so it blends with sugar and flour more readily than butter or margarine.

Default Radio programme about suet

last weeks Food Programme was al about suet and lard, ranging from visiting an old fashioned british butchers to scientific thinking about different types of fat (trans-fatty vs saturated fatty acids etc, etc) . It'll only be available to listen to until Sunday as the BBC only keeps sound archives for a week. i don't know what the coming Sunday's programme is about.
