A heritage breed, the Mangalitsa pig is a lard type hog renowned for it red, flavorful meat and creamy, premium quality lard. It grows well on forages and unconventional feeds, so these pigs are pasture raised and GMO free. This is a pork you won’t find anywhere else!
What will you get? Most of your hanging weight, if you want it. Possible cuts and pieces include:
- Any and all organs you want
- Head and trotters cleaned for broth, any and all bones
- Skin for broth or making pork rinds
- Collar steaks or Boston Butt roast from the shoulder (about 8-10)
- Pork picnic roasts, ground pork, or sausage
- Pork chops (about 10-14 depending on thickness)
- Lots of back fat (about 10 – 15 lbs.) and leaf fat (about 5 lbs) for you to render
- Bacon (generally about 10-12 lbs.)
- Tenderloins
- From the back leg, depending on your preferences: ham, roasts, ground pork
- Sausage
That’s most of the pig right there, except for trimmed pieces, which you can save for your dog. These are super fatty pigs, so you will get a lot of premium, nutrient dense fat back, ground and ready to render.
