Popular Post JY0 Posted March 7, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 7, 2015 We process a hog every year. We start with a certified humanely raised hog, corn fed, and drug free, weighing in at about 280 pounds. We end up with home made bacon, hams, sausage, ribs and chops. It's hard work but so worth it. It taste like nothing you can buy in the store. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKA27 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Very nice, not squeamish at all - We do this ourselves, even better with family around and a few drinks in the process. Top stuff and thanks for sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginseng Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Looks fab! Meat like this bears no relation to most of the stuff you find in the groceries. Wilkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftimatic Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Good on yah and everyone who does this. We do the same only we grow the pigs and have a local family process for us. We are just not set up for it. They save us everything but the squeal. We make our own sausage and stuff and cook up the lard for baking, and soaps and whatnot. We also did 10 Turkeys this year( we cut those up ourselves) averaging out at 35lbs each when cleaned. And 50 broiler chickens. Filled up three large freezers so we figure we are good for a year or two. That way we can spend some time on the garden instead. What a great life knowing where your food comes from and you can shake the hand of the man who grew it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordAnubis Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 This is a Muslim nightmare!! .. or is it a celebration cos you're killing the pig Just kidding mate! Good stuff! I remember when we used to live in the bush, I was about 7 or 8. We didn't get halal meat out where we were so we used to buy a lamb from a local farmer. Every day I would come home from school and feed this thing and play with this nice little lamb. Then one day I come home and my mate the sheep is no longer there. On the plus side we got lamb chops a few weeks later 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puros Y Vino Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 This reminds me of growing up as an Italian kid. My father, uncles, etc used to do round robin turns at buying pig legs for prosciutto, whole lambs, beef and prepping it for the year. They'd make the prosciutto, grind and blend the meats for sausages, various salami's such as soppressata, capicollo, etc. Along with pickling olives, peppers, onions and making our own tomato sauce and wine. Those were good times. I wish I had paid more attention when they were doing this. The only thing I committed to memory was making tomato sauce.
