      So these three hogs were for different weddings. The picture with the two hogs together were whole boneless hogs stuffed with 30# each of polish sausages. The whole hog with the hat on was a bone in whole hog with 50# polish sausages. Whole Hogs in Montana!!!IMG_0056.JPG IMG_0062.JPG IMG_0072.JPG IMG_1073.JPG IMG_0208.JPG IMG_0220.JPG

            rlammers Now that’s what you call “Going in Whole Hog”! I like that sausage idea, Just about like that Turduckin. You could go Hog, Suckling piglet, sausage, all “Hog Tied” up into one!

                  Very nicely done. About how many people did each of those end up serving? i’ve heard to plan about 1/4lb per person, but was wondering if that was true for your events?

                            momma’s not doing so hot post farrowing. This wasn’t her first little, but her history indicates she’d be better off in the freezer once these are weaned and give another few weeks for her hormones to normal out.

                                Grew up on small ranch my parents got me in 4H and we raised and showed cattle. Still remember the kill truck coming out and a few week later the freezer was stocked.

                                        I am with you 100% on that, even more fun when you do a Boucherie (as they call it in Louisiana) where not only are you slaughtering and processing the hog but also make all the traditional stuff (boudin, cracking, cowboy stuff, hog head cheese etc…

                                          I am hoping to do my own hog similar to la caja china style in a few weeks. I’m trying to get my home slaughter situation setup.

                                          I’ll be removing trotters and I’d like to save as much organ meat as possible. Keeping in mind that later this fall I’ll be home butchering another 3-4 hogs. The later hogs will be more typical cuts of meat but this first one will be whole hog.

                                          So my question is what organs would be worth saving? Liver, heart, kidneys, intestines…

                                          Also, can I freeze these for a couple months to use in sausage later on? (Note: I will be chamberless vac sealing the organs and salt packing the intestines after cleaning)
