Thats me and Steve in the first picture, and then Max spraying the hog down with some beer so that it didn't dry out.
So all the little piggies are about to go to market and there is still some available! We are still selling it as half hog share for $3.00/ lb or whole hog for $2.50/ lb. We recently had a hog roast and the meat was delicious! Everyone here seemed to enjoy the meat as well. The picture is of the beginning of the process. It took a full 24 hours to smoke, but it was worth the time and effort. But don't worry, if you buy a hog from us, it will come to you packaged and frozen in easy to deal with sizes. Sausage or bacon come in 1 lb packages for example, the pork chops usually in packages of 2. It only costs $.50 more per lb to have the meat smoked, so if you want bacon instead of fresh side, it will only cost $.50 more per package of bacon (you usually get about 5 packages with half a hog). So overall, it may sound like a lot of meat for you to have or for a large chunk of money to get rid of during tough times, but you will be able to feed your family with peace of mind. Knowing that these pigs were not fed any chemicals, and got to live in the mud with the garden scraps as snacks, will make it not only taste better, but it will be better for you too!
