It's mostly a difference in what they are fed, how they are treated, and how they live outside rather than in pens.

Lot's more to come on this, Dave works his way through most of the most popular cuts.

It's a shame that more people don't eat the head. The people who do know it is some of the best food on the animal!

The firmness of the fat is not the breed but the feed the pig ate. The primary feature of Berkshires is that they tend to have more marbling in the muscle. This is important since flavor comes largely from the fat. The flavor of the fat in turn comes primarily from what the pig ate in the last two weeks to a month of its life.

I'm a bit versed in this topic since I breed, raise and sell all natural pastured pork (another step up from organic) to our customers weekly from our small family farm.
