I have looked everywhere in my area and none of the butcher shops have any in stock, and they all charge me riduclous prices. Is there any website that sells them for a reasonable price?

One of my first internet knives. Great blade. I mean *great* but the handle was a bit weird. Right now it just sits at the bottom of my knife kit.

To be honest, when I think of Caul Fat (just to make sure I'm not having a brain fart... fat netting right?) I can't help but think about how it wouldn't be a very cheap item...let alone for a "decent price". It's pretty much a "one bundle per pig" kind of item I would think, not to mention not many folks ask for it.
So pretty much (following the train of thought just laid out...please don't tear into me yet) you're stuck with having to find your lowest price, be it decent or not, and going with it.
As for Caul fat in general, I love how it cooks up around something, but I have bad memories involving a lexan full of caul fat, a bad hangover, and a particularly large whiff of the order coming from previously mentioned lexan.
