Butchering a hog question?

You guys just making pan sausage should just buy you a grinder, salt, black pepper and a little red pepper and make your own. Jmo

Show pigs definitely have a different taste and texture imo but it’s still good. I’d feed him out on corn. Most meat processors around here will let you drop them off and they take care of “everything”. The processor will also walk you through what you can/cannot order.

At least you know the pork isn’t coming from a feedlot with pigs stacked 10 stories high from China Lol.

I promise you this hamp has tons of bacon lol. This dude would have made some noise at our county show too...he sitting at 275 today. Probably get him around 300.

Sorry y'all weren't able to show at county. That sucks. We got lucky and were able to squeeze a couple in the sale at county end of February. Were 2 days from heading to Houston before this whole fiasco happened. I feel sorry for the seniors this year....in ag, sports, and just in general.

Like most said, feed out with corn. Then take to a processer or do your self. Local guy around me does it for $75-85. Just tell them to cut and wrap, they know what all the cuts are. You won't be disappointed. Note: Unless you take it to jrs in Wharton, you'll take a 200lb hog in a he will try and give you back 25lbs of meat.
