Lean Pork Belly?

[Phil S]

Doing some Pork Belly Burnt ends and while the belly portion I thawed would have made fine bacon, it was pretty fatty for burnt ends. I set aside the cut up pcs that were all fat but used quite a few that were still mostly fat.

I got to wondering if there's any way to estimate the fat to meat ratio before cutting? Is weight a good indicator if 2 pcs are the same size? Will the meatier one weigh more?

Brett, how do you get your pen to write on the fat so well?
I’ll go to the corner now.
