    Restaurant Supply. I use it for everything, prep table cover food wrap, gift wrap, making paper for air brushing and light paint work, etc.

    CGS also has it. Amazon sells small rolls of the "authentic" pink butcher paper.

    FYI ... while investigating different sources for butcher paper, do compare  the width and length of what you're buying.  Some seem to sell sample pack sizes.

    I bought some at Sam's Club, cooked a whole brisket over the weekend, turned out amazing.  just make sure what you order is 40# paper to make sure it holds up.

    If you want to overpay , buy the pink stuff on Amazon, otherwise Costco/Sams..color does not matter...that being said, after playing with butcher paper, I prefer foil..I use the paper for prep work and ease of clean up

    Local commercial paper supply place.  1000ft for like $23 or something.  18" wide, wish I had gotten 24" wide.

    Yup, turns out length isn't key.  Width is key.

    I go to a restaurant supply store. They are usually pretty large rolls, but during deer season I leave one mounted over my prep station and between me and my buddies we will burn through 2 of them in 3 months.

    You can get the boutique butcher paper from Aaron Franklin's web site.  That will definitely enhance the results.  ;)

    Is there a quality difference between the pink and the white? Definitely a price difference

    No, they are functionally equivalent.  Color only helps presentation.

    Is this the one you Sams Club shoppers have used? It says 40#, but isn't the "wider" roll...  =)

    webresraurant store sells it cheap but shipping is expensive. I think if you are buying multiple rolls it is worth it but for just 1 roll it is on par with Amazon. 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Is the stuff at Sam's food grade?
    I here people talking about using grocery bags. They aren't food grade .
    So if non food grade bags are ok I guess non food grade butcher / Kraft paper would work in a pinch ?

    You pretty much just don't want wax coatings because they keep the paper from breathing.  Not that not-breathing would be so terrible as many people use foil, which certainly has a problem breathing.   Paper is mostly used to protect the bark when you're throwing it around, keeps bad smoke from contaminating your meat, does "crutch" it somewhat (keeps steam in and cooks faster). 

    And for serving.  Great for crawfish boils too.
