Bringing Home The Bacon PART 3




Here are a few pictures of the meat getting ground,bacon being cut and the sausage.We had a total of 11 children helping and there was a job for everyone except the babies! lol We ended up getting 130 pounds of meat! :) 50 lbs sausage,20 lbs bacon and 60 lbs of ham/loin/chops etc.We fried some sausage up right away to make sure the seasoning was right.It is soooooooooooooo good!!! We want to smoke our own hams/bacon but that will have to come later.We are thrilled to have some good,hormone free pork!!!!

  3. loved looking at your pics! I so want to do pigs again - we did them when I was a teenager, but we want a farm of our own so badly. I'll have to get your sausage recipe then, though! We only ever did ground pork and pork roast/chops type stuff. We weren't too brave, lol! :) Thanks for sharing!
