One way to save on pork - wait for sales on whole pork loins. Each one weighs between 7 and 11 lbs. I consider anything under $2/lb to be a fairly good price, so if you can find it for even less, so much the better!

I buy a loin with as much fat on it as I can find, even though they trim them pretty close these days, and the meat is not marbled because they keep the pigs on a reduced carb diet to keep the meat more lean.

I cut the whole pork loin into recipe/meal sized chunks (about 1 or 1-1/2 lbs each), wrap each chunk with plastic wrap, and freeze in zipper bags. Even if you don't have a big freezer, it might be worth it to wait for the pork loins to go on sale, as you can usually fit all of the chunks from a whole loin in 2 gallon sized zipper bags, which doesn't take up that much room in the freezer. (After all, you don't need room in the freezer for sugary ice cream any more, right?)
