Hi Meg,
I went to Buffalo Market with my Polish grandmother when I was a child. We went on a bus from Depew, NY just to buy a live duck to make czarnina (duck blood soup), brought the duck home in a shopping bag! Hope this will work for you. I remember it as being only about an inch thick but that probably can be adjusted. I just love this stuff.
