When I was a boy living in post-WWII Germany, my dad would go hunting for wild European boar, akin to US wild hog, but topping out at about 1000lbs. Many were the bag lunches at school with boar meat sandwiches. When my wife and I visited Austria a few years ago, I ordered a boar steak at the oldest continuously operating restaurant in Europe (more than 600 years). Just as good as I remembered.
@@sixbitsnigerino Saltzburg, the hometown of Motzart. Nearby to his house is an old abbey/monastery, in the cellar of which is the restaurant. Good eating to you!
I feel for the German people what was done to them after the war was pure evil. Then to teach the Germans to hate themselves because they tried to save Europe from communism and Germany was the "bad guy" yea no. Nobody mentions the 400k Germans burned alive in Dresden way way way way way worse then the A bombs. Or the fact that 5M plus German women were raped by the red army some women up to 50 60 times in 2 or 3 days.
Brother, I'm glad you're sharing this,some folks would probably starve other wise,I've been hunting wild hogs since I was a kid,my mom and dad had 7 kids to feed,my older brother and I would take our 22s and go to the woods and 95% of the time bring back wild hogs,head shots at about sometimes 25 feet,other times 40 yards,thank God we know how to survive!!
@@lonknight3197 its a shop you can take it to and they will cut it up into steaks and roasts , chops, grind some of the tougher meats and make sausages out of it. surprised these guys don't do it themselves. Its a little time consuming and they have other things to do I guess
My Daddy, used to take me when I was a boy, and I helped or watched him cut up deer and hogs. We also had an old smoke house that we smoked some using corn cobs. Those were good days and I am glad you showed this it brought back great memories.
I grew up in North Dakota, hunting & fishing was a year round activity for our whole family. Everything from Morning doves, Hungarian Partridge, Sharptail Grouse, pheasant, wild turkey, Sandhill cranes, snow geese, canadian honkers, and ducks galore. Cottontail rabbits, Jack rabbits, white tail deer, mule deer, Pronghorn antelope. And then the occaisional moose, elk, and Big horn sheep. And add fresh water Yellow perch, walleye, sauger, northern pike, white bass, etc. Our families Sunday dinner ususally consisted of a game feed of all sorts. We grew up that way, and I guess took it for granted. Now I have lived in another state for the last 28 years, and it amazes me how many so called hunters....will not eat their kill. They hunt for the trophy and give away the meat. I have gotten all sorts of meat donated to me, because the hunter thought it was too gamey. Lol WTF? I never heard if such a thing. But...I would never turn down such an offer. Lol. Alot of hunters will NOT eat these wild feral hogs, and it just blows me away. I have eaten Texas wild hog, fresh off the grill. I'm telling you, if you have not tried it, you are missing out. But I feel that way about all wild meat harvested. I myself, will NOT kill anything I am not going to eat myself. I don't eat antlers. Lol But I will and have happily shared many meals, of wild game and fish, on a fall barbecue or fish fry. There are so many areas effected by these feral hogs, and the opportunity to fill your freezers full of great tasting and nourishing meat. Wild turkey does taste different from a farm raised turkey from the groceries freezer. White tail deer in Wisconsin tastes way different from a Mule deer in North Dakota. So it is probable a wild hog is going to taste different than a farn raised, corn fed pig from Iowa. Lol. I would love to get a wild hog EVERY year, for self consumption. And yes....I would still share my meals with friends and family. Lol
I allways do is add 3 cups of apple cider vinegar or white vinegar,with a lot of ice on the meat,after 2 days drain the water and add more ice,that helps the get rid of the wild taste specially on the males hogs, i keep the meat for 5 to 7 days and thats it you're all done.
3 adults and 11 kids on a dairy farm. We had 250 cows. 50 to 100 pigs that we would harvest or sell to others. A 2 acre garden. Plus hunting and fishing. Dad would always donate a full size hog and a steer to our church every year for those that needed the meat. Plus we sold a lot of the extra vegtables on the main highway that bordered the farm. We also gave some of the extra vegtables to the church. We had 3 ponds with 2 being catfish and the third being carp. We would feed all 3 corn to make them grow and taste better. Plus we ate water moccasin snakes and we had common snapping turtles. Deep fried. ❤
Buddy, my wife tells me to whack & stack em. Take it to a Processor ? Man, 2 front & rear 1/4's, ribs(on bigger hogs), T- loins & back straps, neck roast if i don't put a round through it, I just butterfly the smaller pigs. Sawzaw throigh the back bone makes quick work of-em. It's processed when it goes on ice. Then freezer wrap what didn't get grilled over Hickory. NUMMY NUMMY NUMMY. Nuttun better than Pork-B-Q! Shuckin down 4-5-6 hogs at a time is WORK, especially when done alone. But better to have and whine, than to not have and bellyache!
@@Charles-yq8vv I understand that is something that has occurred for a long time, but it is not traditional culture at all. Universities are multicultural and are kind of ass
@@xXShmendanXx I don't give a damn for most parts of "traditional culture." Ignorance, superstition, yadda yadda. Give me a bustling city full of educated people any day.
Agree totally from start to finish; however, I try to leave as much of the carcass intake as I can over the week on ice. If pig is small enough to fit I'll only split down the middle and have two halves. If larger, then I will take off the hinds, but leave them attached to spine, same with forequarters (leave attached to spine. When muscles contract they get tough, but will relax again if still on bone. Other than that, I do them the same way. 👍👍👍
Excellent video, my respect to you and your family. Good for you to teach your son how to respect and love nature. Good job, God bless you and your family.
Worked with a guy from the south named Hog Daddy. He used to trap hogs and then feed them for three days to reduce the gamey taste before harvesting the hog.
I feed Muscovy ducks for a couple of weeks to eliminate the gamey taste. Wild pigs are always after my garden and even kill ducks so it is good to know the wild pigs can be good eating too!
Getting hog meat cold fast is very important. It will go bad really fast in hot weather. I especially liked the hanging butchering process. I would like to see a more in depth video of how you do that. Great video
Went wild pig hunting in Texas brought back allot of meat home. The family loved it. Watched this video before I left to Texas. Followed his cleaning and aging process. Let's just say the family loved it. Got a frezzer Full. Gonna have a roast for Thanksgiving.
Do you keep replacing the ice over a period of days until the melting water no long is red? And do you use salt? I have seen someone on YT use salt on the ice every time the ice is reapplied.
Maybe some has mentioned this or you may already know . By by covering your ice with salt, it will last longer/ depending with the conditions. The temperature of the ice will get drop much colder as soon as it touches the ice.
If the taste is strong/wild for you, coved it with buttermilk for 8 hours and then start preparing it for whatever you want to do with it. The strong taste is because of all roots and spicy plants/herbs that they eat.
Sometimes if they are stressed by the way they are run or prolonged handling the lactic acid and stress hormones produces a bad taste. Even cattle who are stressed prior to the kill can have a unpleasant taste in the meat.
My grandpa would hunt wild boar in Mexico and always said he preferred the females.. The male boar would have this weird/gamey flavor that many couldn’t stomach for whatever reason..
My brother, lots of folks miss out your/our idea of bleeding out a good hog. But, all the best to all of you. This is exactly how I do it. The Hogmeister 😎🐖💣👍
Deer is lean meat , wild hog no, leave drain plug open on cooler, ice meat salt, ice meat salt, ice meat salt ice, leave cooler on a 25° angle for 4 days, add ice as needed no salt, I do it to all wild hogs male or female then cut the meat up bones and all put in a huge cast iron pot and make some bad ass Caritas, call in some friends build a big bone fire and party hard. Here in Texas
@@Jamessblond87 I used salt the first few I had in a cooler. got tired of getting the slime/jello off the meat. after those, I just started doing exactly what they did in the video with the exception of maybe just 4 days in the cooler . it had more to do with my work schedule
@@Jamessblond872 of then were shot in the head. No blood slime.. it's kind clear jello. it's just something about the salt drawing something out. Closest I could describe it too is like the slime on a gaftop .Haven't had an issue since I quit using the salt
That’s a lot of good eating there. Wild game is the best. Ever since a good buddy of mine got a bad case of Brucellosis from cleaning a wild hog here in Florida when cleaning wild porkers I tend to wear arm length rubber gloves like veterinarians wear when they’re working on big animals.
Awesome. Thanks for showing that it’s ok to eat that pork. Seen other videos where they just leave the wild hog after they kill it. To bad they don’t have someone to pick up those wild hogs to do what you just showed.
It don't get better than wild pork , i totally agree with that : I live in the Netherlands and we have wild hogs here too . They are native but cause a lot of damage . The meat is considered a delicacy here , something you eat at Christmas or holidays like that . It's soo different from regular pork , im always looking forward to it if we're getting on on the table !! Most of the wild hog here comes from Poland , but they kill and butcher plenty of them in my country as well .
We have been hunting and eating deer meat and we discovered a lot of hog prints so we built a trap and today is the third day and we got one so it’s been fun learning about what to do with it
Thank you for sharing your experience. Could you help explain? Is the leaching out of the blood with ice water to make it less gamey flavored? Is the 6-7 day aging to make it more tender? If I have a good pig that smells fine, do these steps still help with the quality of the meat?
Southern Boyz Outdoors, how do you determine if the wild pig is diseased? That's one question. The other is, why do you let the meat sit in the ice chest for 7-8 days? Thanks.
First-time watcher I enjoyed watching.. I'm sure wife's are all very pleased with the catch !!! It's good to see men hunting for his food !!! Caring for his family ... Am single for awhile now , Cuz I told myself that I wouldn't marry again UNLESS I FOUND a man who knew how to DO WHAT my granddad did HE COULD HUNT, FISH , HAD AN AWESOME GARDEN , CAN BUILD ANYTHING COULD FIX!!!

THE ONE WHO IS HEAD OF HIS FAMILY , WHO PRAYS FOR THEM , PROTECTS AND PRAYS FOR THEM ... THAT AMAZING MAN OF GOD ...
In Europe wild boar meat is sold in top restaurants and is very much a prized delicacy so I don’t understand why it’s not more popular in the US. You have an abundance of wild hogs in Texas and maybe better publicity needs to be given to it. From London, uk
You are amazing dude ! We eat wild boars in italy all the time , we consider it a delicacy ! I watched my mom and my relatives butchering it since i was a kid , we make out even prosciutto and salami out of it . The meat is more lean compared to the domestic pig . Thank you for sharing Cheers from italy 🇮🇹
We don't have wild pigs close to me, so I never ate one. I do know the mistake I made with a big ol' boar, though. I did this back 40 years ago when I knew everything. We needed to dispatch an adult boar that got mean. I was told to neuter him and feed him for 3 months or so THEN process him. I didn't. I'd already fed him for about 4 years, and I thought that was long enough. I thought he might be tough, but I expected he'd taste like pork. The meat tasted of ammonia, or some cleaning product, and only the chickens ate.it, and I was worried it might hurt the chickens, but it didn't.
Try Filipino adobo recipe that pork will taste 100% better. Here are the ingredients 2 bay leaves, 12 peppercorn, 10 cloves garlic 1 cup distilled vinegar and 1 cup Kikkoman soy sauce 4 lbs of pork. Simmer uncovered until fork tender.
Just a wild hog cooking trick the ladies shared with me and does make a big positive diff. in results...cook the hog meat with cherries, makes it much milder flavored in a good way. Enjoy and good hunting. Ps grew up on a farm, gramps would have given you the boot if you did not eat your kill...
I’m the only guy at my hunting club that will eat wild hog. They look at me like I’m crazy, but they line up when it’s on the grill. Thanks for the video. Bamaboat75
Um, if they are looking for crazy, then they should look in the mirror. Properly prepared hog is excellent. Oh, in an omelet, it is to die for. I enjoy it for dinner as well, but for breakfast, man it can't be beat.
@@Amatersuful --- heh, make a kabob on the grill, but don't tell your wife until the next day that the meat was rabbit or squirrel. It's all about preparing the meat, and she will say those were excellent kabob's last night honey, then tell her.
I would've liked to see and learn a bit more; especially all the steps you took from start to finish. You cudda dragged this video out to 30 minutes or so and I would've been just fine with it. Still liked👌🏾
I can't understand an aversion to wild pork. By accident of birth, I happen to be a Yankee who by accident of Dad's relocation in the 1960s happens to live in the Los Angeles area. Since my lifestyle and upbringing has made it rare for me to venture off the sidewalk very often, I've only managed to bring down two wild hogs in my lifetime. My family absolutely LOVED the meat, better than the venison or even the bison I bagged. Thanks for showing how to quickly and efficiently break one of these critters down!
All meat should be left in coolers or ice chest so the blood and body fluids can drain for a few days. It makes especially wild meT. It makes it taste so much better. Yeeeaaaboy
Just a grear demonstration. I've often wondered about the end use of the meat. I have seen videos that seemed to show that the dead hogs were left where they were killed and nature was alllowed to take its course - that would be tricky in some areas.
I'm a Yankee relocated to TX. Never seen it done this way. Will try the next time. When you say process, what are you talking about: grinding, sausage, steaks, stew meat?
Why leave it for 7-8 days?? What is the difference from grilling it on the same day or a day later? Is it to improve the taste or for safety precautions??
Ooowee! I love that Wild Hog Meat! I like making Summer Sausage out of mine, with Onion , Garlic, Cheddar cheese! I've given some to my City friends who had never tasted Wild game and they loved it and wanted more! I now live in Alaska and I do Black Bear Sausage the same way! I have Grizzly Bear meat but it's way too strong in taste for me!? Like eating Muctuck (whale Blubber) maybe one of these days I'll try making some 🐻
Michael Gray That’s what I do. Salt, milk, apple cider vinegar, and ice. Leave it over night in an ice chest . Draws out all the blood and gamey taste.
I've never had wild hog. Is it some good eating? My buddy set us up for a hunt in Georgia and I have no idea what to do with it. I'd love to do a whole pig bbq. Any help with ideas would be much appreciated
I know it took experimenting , or it has been passed down for a few generations , and I like the method . Have you tried salt in the mix ? Just curious.
Hey Bro, As a professional cook/hunter/fisherman I would follow a similar regimen of quick cooling. The difference was I would add a ratio of half cup salt to a gallon of water for the initial soak. Try this for a juicier finished product. Thanks
Processing means he is going to debone the meat, remove some fat, some meat will get grinded for sausage or patties. Also to get your different cuts most are familiar with. Pork chops, pork steaks, baby back ribs, the belly for bacon etc....check our your local meat processor they will clean and cut your kill into whatever you like for a decent price....definitely way cheaper than the grocery store.
@@J3susofNazareth Umm.. almost, except a commercial processor isn't allowed to process wild game, without completely cleaning EVERYTHING (and moving all domestic animals to a freezer) Some may switch over to game during hunting season, but most do one or the other only. USDA rules and all that..
I noticed you don't really skin them to keep their skin/ crackling. I thought you needed to dip them in scalding water to dehair them. Why don't you save the skins? Just curious
So basically,that's you do with your meat; You processed it , you put it on ice, and eventually you'll eat it; Wow thanks for the insight dude, I've learned so much today.😵
Surprised to hear that. When we went on a hunt this year and asked if we could process to take home the outfitter told us the hogs stink transferred into the meat and they were literally uneatable.
OK, I'm no hog hunter but I wanted to ask one question. Did you process this hog without gutting it? What do you do with the carcus after you are finished processing the meat?
@@cobia1794 Maybe I was thinking about "Becoming a Hog Hunter". Maybe that is why I ask the question. I don't understand your attitude over a simple question. I use to hunt often so I do know a little bit about it. I was simply trying to gain some more knowledge about how he was processing this hog. I'm sure if you are a hunter you would appreciate it if all the hunters out there with you know the ins and outs of the sport. Happy Hunting.
Thanks So Much for this! I'm constantly hearing about overpopulation of this animal. Free Bacon,Ribs, Pork loins,Chops, Sausage,Etc,... just for the taking?! I gotta go learn more.
What part of the pork do you take to de veterinary doctor to have a microscopic search for parasits and any other deseases ? In Argentina we have sometimes, the parasit called " triquinosis ".

Good video, I do the same with deer meat. It makes a difference in getting a lot of the wild taste out.
Thank you!! Great advice!!!
Southern Boyz Outdoors, how do you determine if the wild pig is diseased? That's one question. The other is, why do you let the meat sit in the ice chest for 7-8 days? Thanks.
Hello from Oklahoma! Thats some good eatin' right there! I like it better than deer myself. God Bless!
Fellow Okie, I agree completely. No $20.00 rip-off tags either. I had to eat a couple of those this year. Not too tasty lol!

Just Wondering, looks like you're hunting and fishing right now.
In Europe wild boar meat is sold in top restaurants and is very much a prized delicacy so I don’t understand why it’s not more popular in the US. You have an abundance of wild hogs in Texas and maybe better publicity needs to be given to it. From London, uk
You are amazing dude ! We eat wild boars in italy all the time , we consider it a delicacy ! I watched my mom and my relatives butchering it since i was a kid , we make out even prosciutto and salami out of it . The meat is more lean compared to the domestic pig . Thank you for sharing
Cheers from italy 🇮🇹
We don't have wild pigs close to me, so I never ate one. I do know the mistake I made with a big ol' boar, though. I did this back 40 years ago when I knew everything. We needed to dispatch an adult boar that got mean. I was told to neuter him and feed him for 3 months or so THEN process him. I didn't. I'd already fed him for about 4 years, and I thought that was long enough. I thought he might be tough, but I expected he'd taste like pork. The meat tasted of ammonia, or some cleaning product, and only the chickens ate.it, and I was worried it might hurt the chickens, but it didn't.
Gave some to a Filipino you knew there and he cook a lot of types of dishes.
Im from Pacific Micronesia and I witness that. I got to taste some very tasty dishes.
Try Filipino adobo recipe that pork will taste 100% better. Here are the ingredients 2 bay leaves, 12 peppercorn, 10 cloves garlic 1 cup distilled vinegar and 1 cup Kikkoman soy sauce 4 lbs of pork. Simmer uncovered until fork tender.
I love wild boar meat . I have gotten it in Texas - Carolinas and Florida abd it has some of the best flavor ever
Just a wild hog cooking trick the ladies shared with me and does make a big positive diff. in results...cook the hog meat with cherries, makes it much milder flavored in a good way. Enjoy and good hunting. Ps grew up on a farm, gramps would have given you the boot if you did not eat your kill...
I heard someone say you couldn't eat wild pigs,,,, I thought, watch me.
I’m the only guy at my hunting club that will eat wild hog. They look at me like I’m crazy, but they line up when it’s on the grill. Thanks for the video.
Bamaboat75
My son had his made into sausage says was the best ever
ibboat but why won’t they eat... it’s must be gamey
Um, if they are looking for crazy, then they should look in the mirror. Properly prepared hog is excellent. Oh, in an omelet, it is to die for. I enjoy it for dinner as well, but for breakfast, man it can't be beat.
they taste way better that normal pig
@@Amatersuful --- heh, make a kabob on the grill, but don't tell your wife until the next day that the meat was rabbit or squirrel. It's all about preparing the meat, and she will say those were excellent kabob's last night honey, then tell her.
I would've liked to see and learn a bit more; especially all the steps you took from start to finish. You cudda dragged this video out to 30 minutes or so and I would've been just fine with it. Still liked👌🏾
Great video love watching your videos
This video sped through the important part. There was no teaching moment.
Bringing home the bacon. Yup, Canada approves. 👍
That's the way to do it! My mouth is watering.
I can't understand an aversion to wild pork. By accident of birth, I happen to be a Yankee who by accident of Dad's relocation in the 1960s happens to live in the Los Angeles area. Since my lifestyle and upbringing has made it rare for me to venture off the sidewalk very often, I've only managed to bring down two wild hogs in my lifetime. My family absolutely LOVED the meat, better than the venison or even the bison I bagged. Thanks for showing how to quickly and efficiently break one of these critters down!
This is the first I've ever heard of aging meat in ice.
I bleed my meat for 24-48 hours maximum. No need to soak it for 7 days.
@@BB-zc4gq do you need to keep adding ice or just let it sit for 7 days?
@@BB-zc4gq 10-4 thanks also can you put it in the freezer after you take it out of the cooler?
All meat should be left in coolers or ice chest so the blood and body fluids can drain for a few days. It makes especially wild meT. It makes it taste so much better. Yeeeaaaboy
@@davidbaynard7732 not needed for venison
It depends on what they've been eating. In Hawaii in some areas they eat avacados, and they couldn't be more better Bra. Broke the mouth.
Gary D Flatt ... got dat right 👍🏼... just as gud as macnuts ... Rog dat !
Thx for advise!!
I would eat it sir and I'm from UK,no bloody problem....great video sir....
Just a grear demonstration. I've often wondered about the end use of the meat. I have seen videos that seemed to show that the dead hogs were left where they were killed and nature was alllowed to take its course - that would be tricky in some areas.
I'm a Yankee relocated to TX. Never seen it done this way. Will try the next time. When you say process, what are you talking about: grinding, sausage, steaks, stew meat?
You made a cool video we haven't seen any wild hogs running through our property but we have seen deers come through
Why leave it for 7-8 days?? What is the difference from grilling it on the same day or a day later? Is it to improve the taste or for safety precautions??
Looks like authentic bar b q meat to me. Great video. Thanks.
That's the same way I do my hog and deer. Make's a huge difference
How many hogs have ya'll caught now?? Since like the first of the year??
You said your change the ice during the week. How many times or how often do you change the ice in the process? Thanks
Do you replace the ice every day as it melts or do you just let the whole thing sit at room temperature for the last four or five days?
Ooowee! I love that Wild Hog Meat! I like making Summer Sausage out of mine, with Onion , Garlic, Cheddar cheese! I've given some to my City friends who had never tasted Wild game and they loved it and wanted more! I now live in Alaska and I do Black Bear Sausage the same way! I have Grizzly Bear meat but it's way too strong in taste for me!? Like eating Muctuck (whale Blubber) maybe one of these days I'll try making some 🐻
My grandparents used to salt it down and they lived to their late 80s
Michael Gray That’s what I do. Salt, milk, apple cider vinegar, and ice. Leave it over night in an ice chest . Draws out all the blood and gamey taste.
My great grandpa only ate pork everyday and lived to his late 90s. Always thought that was crazy. Same with my grandparents on my moms side
I've never had wild hog. Is it some good eating? My buddy set us up for a hunt in Georgia and I have no idea what to do with it. I'd love to do a whole pig bbq. Any help with ideas would be much appreciated
I know it took experimenting , or it has been passed down for a few generations , and I like the method .
Have you tried salt in the mix ? Just curious.
I was wondering the same thing.
Do you eat the boats too? Or just sows. We get sows processed but have been told board stink too much and meat has a twang
I'm impressed. He has done this a few times
Hey Bro, As a professional cook/hunter/fisherman I would follow a similar regimen of quick cooling. The difference was I would add a ratio of half cup salt to a gallon of water for the initial soak. Try this for a juicier finished product. Thanks
Bro these could feed so many people in need of food!!!
What "processing" is done after the 7 days on ice? Do you have to keep icing it when the ice melts after a few days?
Processing means he is going to debone the meat, remove some fat, some meat will get grinded for sausage or patties. Also to get your different cuts most are familiar with. Pork chops, pork steaks, baby back ribs, the belly for bacon etc....check our your local meat processor they will clean and cut your kill into whatever you like for a decent price....definitely way cheaper than the grocery store.
@@J3susofNazareth Umm.. almost, except a commercial processor isn't allowed to process wild game, without completely cleaning EVERYTHING (and moving all domestic animals to a freezer) Some may switch over to game during hunting season, but most do one or the other only. USDA rules and all that..
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!!!
I noticed you don't really skin them to keep their skin/ crackling.
I thought you needed to dip them in scalding water to dehair them. Why don't you save the skins?
Just curious
This was likely a quick processing to get it cooled down.
Thanks for the video. Are you replacing the ice during the 7 days ageing?
Liberty Garden Yes Sir
Now, how often do you have to change the ice in the cooler? I’m thinking it melts pretty quickly, and if you’re keeping the meat in their for 7 days…
That's exactly how we do it in South Texas . The meat is great to eat .
@Silmarillion Tolkien Depends on the pig . Smaller ones are better .
So basically,that's you do with your meat; You processed it , you put it on ice, and eventually you'll eat it; Wow thanks for the insight dude, I've learned so much today.😵
Hi, just found ur channel and love it. show us more details of cutting and save the entire wild boars. or maybe not eatable ! thx
WMMK 001 Thank You
That’s some good eat’ in. Good video.
I like how you process the hogs
Surprised to hear that. When we went on a hunt this year and asked if we could process to take home the outfitter told us the hogs stink transferred into the meat and they were literally uneatable.
Sounds like your outfitter has no idea who he’s talking about
Feed the vets and homeless Legal citizens
Excellent video, thank you
Daniel Lobo Thank You
Wow. Thanks for sharing
OK, I'm no hog hunter but I wanted to ask one question. Did you process this hog without gutting it? What do you do with the carcus after you are finished processing the meat?
Become a hunter and find out!
@@cobia1794 Maybe I was thinking about "Becoming a Hog Hunter".
Maybe that is why I ask the question. I don't understand your attitude over a simple question.
I use to hunt often so I do know a little bit about it. I was simply trying to gain some more knowledge about how he was processing this hog.
I'm sure if you are a hunter you would appreciate it if all the hunters out there with you know the ins and outs of the sport.
Happy Hunting.
Love your videos
Can you do an older bigger boar hog the same way and if so how would it come out of would the boar tenet come though on the meat?
Thanks So Much for this! I'm constantly hearing about overpopulation of this animal. Free Bacon,Ribs, Pork loins,Chops, Sausage,Etc,... just for the taking?!
I gotta go learn more.
In florida they been having alot of issues with Wild Boars I wonder if I could use the meat for bacon sausage kielbasa and how to season it
slow n low hickory smoke - I’ll eat that til I’m sick to my stomach
Pig...
I always enjoy watching when people use the wild hogs or let other people have them who will use them.
How is the meat processed after its on ice for 7-8 days? Thanks
What part of the pork do you take to de veterinary doctor to have a microscopic search for parasits and any other deseases ? In Argentina we have sometimes, the parasit called " triquinosis ".
