The belly meat is used to make bacon but usually wild hogs are to lean not enough fat content

[dnahoghunter]

@SouthTxHogHunters wild hogs are getting fatter by the day

Good stuff.



[dnahoghunter]

@fistrow89 thanks

[norcaltke857]

what part do you use for bacon? lol

[dnahoghunter]

@norcaltke857 I havent made any yet. But the stomach and the meat over the ribs I think

[dnahoghunter]

@camarogod93 I need to pull some out myself

[camarogod93]

I do believe I'm going to have ribs for dinner...

[dnahoghunter]

@aslanruhu I need to find some more!

[dnahoghunter]

@acdcgreat thats starts while gutting. Dont cut anything wrong. That said, wash the meat right after. Then put in cooler FULL of ice. Leave that drain open. I add ice if needed and leave my pork on ice for at least 3 days for a sow or pocket pig. The bigger boars for 4-5 days. Drains the blood, ages teh meat a bit. That seems to help. At the same time, Ive harvested boar and cooked that same day.

[acdcgreat]

Do you have any good tips on how to get the gamey taste out of the meat when you are eating the meat?

[dnahoghunter]

@deborahtucker94 just about any blade will gum up, cut the meat thru before you use the saw.

[deborahtucker94]

What type of blade do you use on your Sawzall? The one I've been using seems to gum up really badly.

@Toolcarlos12 Some ribs... this is old too... Ive gotten much better at it since!

[Toolcarlos12]

Mmmmm this video made me hungry for some hog

Your real good at processing them

How much you charge ;)

[MrDlj1369]

thumbs up bro

[dnahoghunter]

OLD vid, LOL, a regular meat butcher would say I butchered him!!! But it fit in the freezer and ate very well!!! Welcome.

[MrDlj1369]

cool vid man..thanx for posting

[dnahoghunter]

Now you know!!! Take the time and cut the spine out. The ribs will seperate better that way after cooking.

[realtreehunter84]

was wondering how you left backstrap on when you cooked the ribs on a prior video!!!

[realtreehunter84]

HELPFUL!!

[acomamueller]

Things only can get better. Publish again, after you did the first dozen. Learning by doing! One of the methods to experience anatomy.

Wish I could be with you to share some time.

I am always ready for a cold beer and some barbequed meats.

So long,

regards,

[dnahoghunter]

They probably would!!! But I'm no pro and this is the first time doing it by myself. And yes, I've cut myself many times, but not on hogs!!! Thanks for the comment!!!

[acomamueller]

A real professional butcher, who sees this, would instantly start to cry!

How long, do you think, it would take, till this guy cuts his own leg, arm or anything else?
