Pork Jowls
Before the 1980s salted pork Jowls were easy to find in almost all the stores. Now it's impossible to find except November and December and maybe January and only then in a handful of grocers if one is lucky.
Jowls are the best seasoning for leafy greens, all beans, stewed potatoes.
HEB has a product labeled slice Jowls and they are flavorless, more like bacon for frying. Authentic Jowls do not fry easy and do not boil easy. And they sell smoke jowls from a company, which is also flavorless, not even as good as any bacon.
Is there any place in Houston and I've searched quite a few that sells real salted pork Jowls that anyone knows of.
