Hog Butchering Time




No, we don't live on a farm or raise hogs. However, this past week, The Man went to Texas with a friend and hunted wild hogs. I am a little wary of eating wild meat. I'm not fond of wild game, in general.

He brought a cooler full of deboned, skinned hog meat. He and I donned rubber gloves and set out to cut the hog into roasts, chops, rib meat, and we have a large amount of meat and fat to make homemade sausage. Currently, I have a roast in the crock pot for pulled pork. It looks just like pork from the store, so, fingers crossed, here's hoping that it tastes good.

I'll keep you updated!

Scott and I were saying (while we were cutting up all that meat) that you and Jim wouldn't be interested in our meat! LOL
