slaughtered a pig

[Workinonit Farm]

Did you scald it or skin it? My guess would be skinned it if you did this by yourself.

Good news A.B. - they do make one.

See Chrisy's calender post on the Coffee Shop board.

It would be Miss January

The best part about butchering the hog is ripping out the tenderloin and taking it into the house and slicing it and frying it up and making gravy and having tenderloin, biscuits and gravy when the butchering is finished. Here you would say, I boned out that hog. Hope the sausage turns out as good as it sounds

 

[BlackBaldyMan]

We allways say boned as well, guess you can take it either way depending on what kinda mood you are in :lol:

I ended up boning the hole thing today

You "BONED" IT OR "DE-BONED" it?

There's a difference in technicalities here. :lol:

See Crowder comment. :shock:

Up here you would say boned it.

I understand. Still haven't caught on to the "English Language" thing up there, huh? :lol:

That's OK. I bet Flaboy can understand ya! :lol:

I know what you mean by stunned. I have that "stunning" effect too. :shock: I'm a member of the Backwoods , but don't talk that way.

Lets get back to bonin' that hog...What breed was it?

Bar, Sow, Which one?

This was a white hog with a little black on it, but not dark black. It was a sow and its weight was 220. It was a very muscular hog tight muscle and not much fat. It was in heat when I killed it,I have heard things on this board and hope that doesn't effect the meat, but the local butcher makes the best sausage and I would thing it would negate most off taste? I woukld say it was Landrace HampshireX.

I skinned it and it took me a while because my hands got very cold and I was sitting on the ground. If I try it again I will build something to hang it and it will be much easier. I wouldn't want to try it in warm wheather because I take to long.

I had almost the whole thing turned into sausage, so it should be very good sausage. I was very careful about cutting out those tederloins after I found them. they came out very easy after I tried for a minute. Biscuits and gravey? sounded like something they would eat in the uk with pork.

I told you guys. My fellow twenty something male friends would laugh if I said "bone" something but that is how we most all talk.

good meaning full comment! You always say the most insightful things :roll:

 

[sidney411]

You don't need to build anything if you have a tree around, or a barn, or loader, or swing set.

 

[backhoeboogie]

Sidney you are dead on. Nothing like hanging them from the bucket. You can lift it up a little at a time. Not that big of a deal when you are just processing one hog but when you start doing several the old back starts telling your age. By the third hog, you are looking for a rocking chair. By the tenth hog, you are sick of sharpening knives and your hands are so soft that you can't grip anything.

You aint sure if he's grown up yet? He must've spent too much time listening to a few of the people on this site then...I'd say the kid has got more sense than Crowder, I aint never met a full grown man that'd talk about "boning" a hog in that way...I mean, i'd expect my grandchildren to bring up something stupid like that, because they are young and that's the stupid stuff they think is funny, but I wouldn't expect it from an adult

The tractor doesn't have a loader and the trees are all trimmed, but I did see part of the frame to the old swing set that I thought of putting back together, then it snowed two feet. If I slaughter another I will probably weld some of that stuf together.

Nam Vet, I have got to say it sure was nice while you were absentee from here... Did you have a "Meltdown" or something??You remind me of a few pricks around that brag about being a Nam Vet. You were probably in Thailand, or maybe even Stateside doing a Military sentence a Judge ordered you to do in the Salvation Army. The real Vets like my Dad and all his Brothers never bragged or had names made up to make people feel sorry for them.

I'm glad you enjoyed it while I was gone, I guess you enjoyed it because you could pick on little kids like auctionboy and everybody just laugh and think it was funny? You're more childish than that kid is, and you're a little punk, calling me a prick on the internet...I believe everyone can see who the prick is here...and when have I once bragged about being in Nam? What am I supposed to brag about? It's easy to see most people don't have any respect for Vets anyways...You aint no better than the dirty protestin' hippies...That's what pisses most Vet's off is..people like you, because you sure as he!! use your freedom of speech right way too much, you need to learn to shut up when the time is right...And why would I want people to feel sorry for me? I kinda find it hard to believe that your loud ignorant self was born as the son of a Veteran anyways

sidney...,

Looks like you got it under way. But, I don't see the bon fire and 55 gal drum of hot water to ripen him in. Also, where's the flat bed to lay him on for scraping? :lol: Sure looks familiar.

Preston everytime I string one up the old timers stop and tell me how I am doing it all wrong. THey are fun to listen to and its good they stop. The tell me to dip it in 140 degree water and scrape it. Their quote is "nothing goes to waste but the squeal". There are folks in the county popping them out of feeders and letting them go for buzzard bait. The whole hog gets wasted regularly in those cases. In some places they bring in the helicopters to shoot them.

All I need to do is go take another one out of the pen. I can't trap them fast enough. The more that are alive, the more I have to feed. Not only once they are trapped but the wild ones too. If a herd comes through, they can go through an awful lot of hay and tear up the cow panels that are attempting to protect the hay.

I don't see the waste in taking off the skin with a fillet knife.

What you don't understand is the people that say this on the web are little sad men and if they spoke to in person they would have a lot of respect. I'm not that little 6' 2" 210. The point is they are cowards that probably never stuck up for anything there whole lives. Don't get mad namvet, let them have this in there sad little lives, it is probably the only time they will ever be brave enough to say all of this crap.
