   I can remember when bone-in loin or rib roasts were that price, but
   not lately.

 DD> U$1.99/lb or a  bit less. When I buy a whole loin I have the butcher

   We get that also at the super markets.  Once in a while, the sale
   price will beat the BJs price -- but not often.

 DD> slice it 1" thick.  That allows for really nice chops - or lets me cut

  We pretty much do that sort of boneless chop these days.  Sometimes we
  get bone-in chops if they look really good and are a good price.
  Bones are good to knaw on:-}}

  We might do the boneless on the George or on the outside grill.  But
  two of them are more than enough for both Gail and I these days.
 
 DS>  Another example is in our Giant -- boneless skinless breasts =
 DS>  $1.79 per pound on sale this week.  At the same time, breasts with
 DS>  skin and bone still on them = $1.99 in the same store.

 DD> What is the usual price of denuded, stripped breasts when not on sale.
 DD> There are often deals like that out there - but, "on sale" pricing
 DD> does  not give a good indication of the market.

  I think that "normal" price is $3.99 to $4.99.  But to us, "on sale"
  is the only market we participate in, except on very rare occasions.

      Title: Pernil Asado Estilo Chino-Cubano
 Categories: Main dish, Cuba, Meat
      Yield: 8 servings
 
      1    Pork loin (4 1/2 - 5 lb)
      3 tb Soy sauce
      3 tb Sherry
      2 tb Hoisin sauce
    1/4 c  Mashed cooked black beans
      2 tb Five-spice powder
      2 tb Minced garlic
      3 tb Sugar
    1/4 c  Honey, mixed with
    1/4 c  Boiling water, for basting
 
  The culinary influence of the many Chinese laborers who flocked to
  Cuba in the mid-19th century can be seen in this roast pork dish,
  which mixes those beloved Cuban black beans with Asian seasonings.
  
  Preheat oven to 425'F. Rinse pork and pat dry. Place on rack in a
  roasting pan and fill bottom of pan with 1" of water.
  
  In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, sherry, hoisin sauce, black
  beans, five-spice powder, garlic and sugar. Mix well. Coat pork loin
  with mixture, rubbing meat all over until the mixture is used up.
  Roast pork 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 325'F. and cook 1 - 1 1/2
  hours, basting every 15 minutes with honey and water mixture. When
  done, remove from oven and let cool clightly. Transfer to serving
  platter. Serves 6-8.
