LOL, I did feed the hog about a bushel of bunker, and many tuna heads, he loved it.

Very impressive, when we butcher we usually do about 6 hogs and 2 beef when the whole crew is around . we skin our hogs also ,alot quicker and easier. unfortunately we hire someone to do the smoking and sausage making for us and it turns out fine . Alot more pride in those fine looking hams and bacons of yours tho. i agree on the lard , makes some awesome pastry crusts too. anyone care to share that cracklin/cornbread recipe ? sounds awesome. Cornbread 1 Cup sifted all-purpose flour; 1/4 Cup sugar; 4 tsp baking powder; 1 Cup yellow cornmeal; 2 eggs; 1 Cup milk; ¾ cup of lard ¼ cup of crunched cracklins. Combine ingredients. Do not over mix. Bake at 425 F for 20-25 min. in greased cast iron skillet.

This is a really great post. What else did you feed your hog besides tuna heads?
Pat, as usual, you are right....
