Monday morning I dropped off a couple pigs at the slaughter house, yesterday I picked up my fresh meat. Ribs, loin, chops, shoulder steaks and roasts, sausage, and ground pork. I had two pigs. I told them to process the one pigs shoulders as roasts and pork steaks, the other pig to add it all to the grind. Then once all the grind was done, season half as sausage, keep half unseasoned.
Pork burger sandwiches for supper last night!
Will get my cured meats in about two weeks. Had one hog weigh 280, the other 265. Hanging weights were 190 and 180 Picked up about 230 pounds fresh meat, have 133 pounds of cured coming.
For those of you who raise pigs, how do those numbers sound?

Thanks, my friend. I'm hungry too, but I'm waiting on the cured meats. My mouth is watering for a plate of scrambled eggs and some thick cut jowl bacon.

I'm still pretty new to pigs so can't comment on weights, but I can say for sure you've made me hungry!!

dba, we need to know how old they are to be able to comment on the live weights as far as weights at check in and weights in freezer sounds good These numbers vary by breed as well!
