Good luck! Your profile doesn't show your location, but you can probably look for a butcher that serves the Latino community -- the best source for uncommon, but tasty, cuts that I've found wherever I've been. I've found that big box grocery stores around here at least won't order anything custom.

it's a couple dollars a pound cheaper, but quality and ability to break it down into lardons or thick slices or whatever, combined with the flavoring versatility, are what I really like.

Rub the cure in once, then just let it sit for 7 days, flipping every other day. No need to rub again.
