Well, this came at a time my husband and I were trying it find every bit we could on slaughtering pigs. Our two pigs were ready and we had no idea what we were doing. The meatsmith had the best video I had seen. He made it seem effortless and simplistic. We watched all the other videos on his site. Capturing the blood seemed too much pressure but we wanted to use everything. In the end we did make head cheese but didn't use much offal. I wonder what the next slaughter will bring! By the way, everyone we know thinks we're freaks.......

When I was growing up we ate pig ears, tongues, cheeks, blood, intestines, feet, and all the various organs, and so much more. I was too young to really appreciate it though, and often thought they were "yucky." It's hard to find anything except "muscles" here, and am looking forward to raising and loving our own pigs in the future.Lydiahttp://hornespointhomestead.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
