    Ham and bacon day

    We cut up 7 durocs from comparts on Wednesday. Fridays are usually ham and bacon slicing days for us.

      Ya better wait a couple monthes!! You may find it a touch cold right now. I was thinking about when you said you wore a coat below 50 degrees the other day while my kids ran around the yard with no shoes on and only wearing a t-shirt at 43 degrees. If it was 50 they probably would have been in shorts!!

    A little smoke and there you go.
    That thin boning knife looks like it has had many a use.

      Thanks Skip . I have butchered all three breeds comparts have and all are fabulous! I won't sell a pig if it isn't a comparts pig. They have done the science behind the ph and other experience to say that the durocs is superior. Now from a knuckle dragger butcher point of view I just know that they are some good tasting pig!! Never any complaints and I can pick them up 20 minutes away and I can get any amount I want when I want. So yes if I have a choice I will get comparts duroc!!
