Processing Day – Mangalitsa Hogs

by mrsdoni

We finally got our two large Mangalitsa hogs to market this week. They were a combined weight of 1,040 pounds on the hoof and we ended up with 765 pounds of meat. Key Packing Company in Robbiins, NC did a very good job. The Hot sausage and pork chops are delicious but we’ve not tried any of the other cuts yet. We also have to wait a few weeks to pick up our 80 pounds of bacon.

Mangalitsa porch chops; A dark red meat with magnificent marbling. These were delicious!!
