kill hog

Ummm, That just makes me want pork...the other white meat:D
I was a butcher though.lol.


From these pics, and your past its very obvious they do not waste a thing in China.

Thanks again.
 
Great photos. I spent a good deal of my childhood in Papua New Guinea and saw many a pig slaughter. The Chinese way is a lot less brutal that the PNG way :)

Thanks for sharing mate!
 
That was interesting Lachine. Thanks
The real meaning of "Bleeding like a stuck pig".
 
I gotta say I thought that was fascinating. truly the earliest stage of grocery shopping :)

Thanks for the photos.
 
Interesting how in China they slaughter Pigs the same way and I believe the only remaining "legally entitled" way over here that Kosher Butcher's slaughter their meat whether chickens or other white meat...cutting the throat when alive ..... so that the maximum "bleeding" of the carcass can take place ..... makes a whole lot of sense from a Butchers perspective....and makes for nicer tasting meat.... and it is safer too if you are in an area where parasites can be in the blood...

Now over here the "humane" aspect means all butchery aside from the dispensation granted for Kosher Butchers and to Venison Game Dealers has to involve a "brain dead" instant kill before bleeding out the carcass....which is lot less effective...and as a result it needs "hanging" for a lot longer....

It's good to have the odd thread which brings "practicality" and "reality" back to how knives are used in food prep....:thumbup: too many people don't have these old skills any more....
