I get a hog every year from the same guy, been doing this for 5 years... I usually get around 5 for other people also. Usually it’s 300 buck per hog, they usually weigh 290-320.. this year he said he’s going to charge me live weight per pound... but didn’t give me a price per pound.. he said he has to call someone.. I thought that was weird. Guys a great guy, never had any problems with him.. I guess what’s the going price per pound live weight for hog... I don’t know... I pay butcher.

A swine ebola outbreak in China and S.E Asia is wiping out entire farms there so I figure pork prices will begin to rise soon.

Around here at the processors it ranges from $2.29-$2.59 per pound hanging weight completely butchered to your specs and vacuum packed. Average half weighing 90-100lbs.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

He just got back to me a buck a pound live weight, plus I pay butcher. Pretty much the same as always

How hard is it too butcher yourself? Not that hard, but you got to have tools such as grinder, stuffer and suff.. plus a smoker for hams and bacon... if that’s what you like... I’d rather pay the piper

.45 cents a lb. may be for something not up to expectations. A few bucks more for something you know you like is well worth the cost. Yes sir
