Where are you guys buying your butcher paper? Seems that no regular grocery stores sell it any more.

Do you have to go to a specialty shop to get it?
 
Costco

Cash & Carry

Smart & Final

Not sure of the stores in your area, but all of the above carry it in the SF Bay Area.
 
I order it online. I looked locally but I either couldn't find it or they wanted way too much money for it. 
 
 
I was trying to source something locally, since I'm locked and loaded with a brisket for smoking tomorrow. I guess I'll go with foil again.
Staples and Office Depot carry it as well...JJ

I'll check that out! Doing one next weekend and was going to ask my butcher if I could "borrow" a few feet to try instead of foil. If it works better imo I know there to go! Sam's also has it, but it's a huge roll at about forty bucks.

Is that stuff safe to use for food?

I always figured it was geared towards art projects and painting sorority signs and stuff. Might have some kind of coating on it? Or otherwise not appropriate for food usage?

Butcher paper was designed for wrapping meat....
 
I looked into this awhile ago. Found this...  http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-butcher-paper.htm  Looking at other info, this paper vs that, can be argued all day. Just like Galvanized metal or not, PVC Pipe is food safe or it's not...If there is a doubt, buy from a Restaurant supply. Just offering an option...JJ.
