BJ's seems to be only game in town around where I live that has larger beef and pork cuts to smoke. I don't care for what Sam's Club has to offer, and the nearest COSTCO is 50 miles away. If you have bought from BJ's, how did it turn out?
Sorry I didn't reply to you sooner. I agree about Publix. It has been my go to supermarket for over 40 years. I don't buy meats for smoking from them because their prices are high, and you can't buy larger cuts of beef or pork for smoking on a day to day basis.
We have always had good luck with Sam's club.
I have never tried BJ's.
But here in Florida Publix will have or order anything you want.
Very good quality meat. I get tri tip, and bellies from them all the time.

A new Aldis has just opened in Port St. Lucie, close to me. I will check it out.
I've bought lots of meat from BJ's and never been disappointed. However, I have to agree with an earlier poster. I also shop at Publix. Their meats are also excellent but they are more expensive. I don't mind paying a little more because the stores all seem to be very clean and generally have good selection of all groceries. Another thought -- I have recently been doing a lot of shopping at Aldi's. The selection is't as good but overall, the prices are excellent.
