Back fat makes a delicious lard. We raise our pigs to about what you see there, around 3/4" to 1" of back fat. We render the back fat, with the skin on, over steam. This produces a wonderfully flavored white lard. Decanted into mason jars and allowed to cool the gelatin separates from the lard which is an excellent replacement for oils in cooking.
