Butchery course
« on: February 26, 2012, 09:11:49 pm »
Well, I'm just back tonight from taking half of my boar on Smiffy's butchery course and I am well pleased.

I thoroughly enjoyed the course and got everything out of it that I wanted and then some.  Thoroughly recommended.   :thumbsup:   (And of course the lunch was tremendous!  ;) :D)

The other attendees chopped up Lops from Smiffy's farm - and delicious they looked too.  I was full of trepidation after the demonstration, wondering how mine would compare - and I am absolutely made up with how good my pig was!  Not too fat but enough marbling to bode well for flavour and succulence - and if the sausages we had this evening are anything to go by, we are in for some real treats as we work through the rest of the pork, bacon, sausages & gammon.   :yum: 

Thanks again Smiffy  :wave:  (And thanks to Dan & Rosemary too  :bouquet: - there's another thing I'd probably never have done but for TAS!)
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing
