I went to a ranch to learn how to butcher a pig today.

here are the cuts of the pig. Gabagool not being listed is the type of anti-Italian sentiment I’m talking about!!!

It was snowing and cold out. Not common for Southern California. I enjoyed.

I saw some super dope knives. These aren’t the ones we used though. Especially fond of the handle with the green inlays (turquoise? Jade?)

Any pics of piggie making the jump from pig to pork?

Looks like some family fun right there.

 

Did you get to do any butchering yourself?

 

When we showed up the pic was already how you see it in that first pic. I guess they need to treat it first to get all the hair off the skin

 

yep! I used the saw to get through the spine and then a knife to separate one of the rear legs from the body. Then I spent some time skinning another cut of meat that I can’t remember. At the end I deboned the shoulder joint and cleaned up the excess fat from the cut of Boston butt I got to bring home! (Surprised it’s from the front of the pig lol)

Props bro - ready to bug out when WW3 hits…

Looking at going on a jog hunt later this year/next year and wanted to get an idea of how hard it would be to process the hog. 100% most definitely would be paying a butcher to do it now that I’ve gone to this.

That’s good to know. I had been toying with the idea of buying whole animals and butchering them myself at home for deep freeze.

Yeah man. It’s pretty involved - not just knowing where the cuts of meat you want are, but knowing where to cut/what to remove to get to the pieces you want. They also have the tooling and casings needed to make sausage out of all the rest of the meat and fat, they have the tooling and spices needed to cure and age the belly to be sliced into bacon.. all that. You can still go to a farm and pick out your animal and have it sent to the butcher tho. Then just tell him what cuts of meat you want and they go to town.

Wish I had a smoker! Not allowed by HOA tho 😠 


boooo. You on a balcony or they just don’t want the smell offending non meat eaters?

 

also. Damn man. I’m really just trying to find a way to get lamb for cheaper than an average of like $20 + per pound. Oops just did some googlin and found whole lambs for $380. I’m not sure if that’s broken down but that only comes out to $9 an lb.

Bought an 1/8th of a cow couple years ago from my buddy who raises grass fed beef. Definitely was worth the money to buy in bulk and the quality is obviously there…..
