    We just processed our first 3 pigs. THREE! A total on hoof weight of 1200 lbs and my husband and I did it all by ourselves. This video was invaluable! On the first one, I literally ran in and out of the house watching each segment and then going back and doing it. Thanks so much for this one and the skinning video!!

      Don’t eat animals it’s a sin they are not food they are people don’t force your life styles on animals and killing them to eat them it’s wrong anyone who bleeds or lives shouldn’t be eaten god made vegetables to eat. Don’t kill fleas or ticks or roaches or small animals god made them. Vegetables don’t have feelings and theirs a reason why they are edible and don’t have feelings because they are food!!!!! It’s murder it says in the Bible thou shalt not kill or steal. Stop making animals suffer by forcing your lifestyle of them. Don’t say oh my god or Jesus Christ. Go to Jesus and Mary Jesus told me in my dreams that you will live to see the rapture. Don’t eat bacon you can’t be saved if you eat animals it’s the same as drinking alcohol. Stop cussing it’s a sin and don’t use the lords name in vain by saying oh my god, Jesus Christ, oh my lord or baby Jesus or mother Mary or mother of Christ.

    I've learned so much watching these. I have Crohn's and can only digest mostly meats without becoming ill. And it's been so helpful to learn what each of the cuts are so that I can then go look up recipes of how to use all the different cuts so I'm not so afraid of trying a cut because I wasn't sure what it was or how to use it. It opens up new menu items for me, and so I'm not eating the same thing all the time. Thank you!

    My only complaint is that you guys aren't "just down the road". I identify so much with where your videos come from. I learned to cut meat when I worked for a small town IGA store, back in the day. Never did I realize how many times in my life I would fall back on the skills I learned cutting meat and making sausage. I have my private meat palace here on our small hobby farm, kinda gone wild. Complete with band saw, 5hp hobart grinder, ez pak stuffer, slicer, walk-in cooler and freezer. The difference is I'm now at an age where I control when and what I make. Love making all types of sausage even more than the "butchering" part of it. Have watched many of your videos and what I can really attest to is the fact that you take professional steps and reduce them down to lay person terms. It's also a testament that without ever meeting or talking to any of you, I feel like your my neighbor and we could just as well be having a cup of coffee talking about what's up for today. Good luck with your newest adventure with the cattle lot, I'm jealous. Randy

      Don’t eat animals it’s a sin Jesus told me this. they are not food they are people don’t force your life styles on animals and killing them to eat them it’s wrong anyone who bleeds or lives shouldn’t be eaten god made vegetables to eat. Don’t kill fleas or ticks or roaches or small animals god made them. Vegetables don’t have feelings and theirs a reason why they are edible and don’t have feelings because they are food!!!!! It’s murder it says in the Bible thou shalt not kill or steal. Stop making animals suffer by forcing your lifestyle of them. Don’t say oh my god or Jesus Christ. Go to Jesus and Mary Jesus told me in my dreams that you will live to see the rapture. Don’t eat bacon you can’t be saved if you eat animals it’s the same as drinking alcohol. Stop cussing it’s a sin and don’t use the lords name in vain by saying oh my god, Jesus Christ, oh my lord or baby Jesus or mother Mary or mother of Christ. STOP STEALING FROM ANIMALS AND POOPING THEIR CORPSES.! You would run a civil rights movement if you were killed for food but if it’s a animal you wouldn’t do nothing!! Stop hyprocrisy and Justice for all!!

We were a little confused on the front shoulder, and all the ways it needs broke down. The bone saw i bought is not near as good as that one you are using, where can i get that bone saw?
    It took us 5 hours to go from live pig to ready for packaging, that was 2 entire pigs, we did skin them, the second pig went way faster, and i smell really bad, i should probably go throw these clothes away and shower now. lol

    In NZ a favourite cut of pork is the back bone or pork bone as we call it - its a cut of meat from the neck to the tail of the pig - its cut into sections and slow cooked with potatoes pumpkins sweet potato watercress and dumplings - it takes about 4 to 5 hrs to cook - its more or less just a big stew or as we maori's call it a " Boil Up " - you cant go wrong bc its really filling 👍

Generally we made lard from all fat and made cracklings. All other bone parts where cured and smoked and yes used to make beans and flavor stuffed cabbage rolls. Head became head cheese.
    My favorite is smoked ham hocks cooked for 5 hrs till they fall apart.
