I'll bet if you go to a gourmet market they'll be able to get some fatback for you or at least point you in the right direction. Also, the Crisco should work just as well.... my mother, grandmother and every other family member I know used it all around SC.
I'm a southerner and understand the value of this stuff. It's tasty to eat and also a great seasoning for green beans, pinto beans, butter beans, speckled butter beans, turnip greens, collard greens.... Oh yeah, did I mention I'm from the south?
Don't forget to fry up some cured ham and then make red eye gravy with coffee for your grits!
