How much time from when an order is placed does it take for a whole hog to be ready for pickup?
When we get your deposit we'll put you in the schedule for our next processing date,
typically we take hogs to the butcher about once a month. After they are butchered it takes 2-3 weeks for curing to
be finished, so it will take between 3 and 7 weeks for your meat to be ready for pick-up.
How big is a side of pork?
We sell sides of pork
by the whole (approximately 200 lbs) and half (approximately 100 lbs). This is the hanging weight of the animals.
You'll take home about 80% of this weight after the meat is cut.
