John got his twentieth or thirtieth hog this year the other day. He brought it home to butcher for the entertainment of his grand children and his father in law..
John uses the pioneer method of hog butchering.
So, that is where bacon, sausage, and pork chops come from.
The very first time I met John was in Jena, Louisiana a few years ago. Jackie, Kerry and I drove out to his trailer in the woods. John had a hog hung up between two trees and was butchering it. I wonder how many hogs John has killed in his life.
We had pulled pork enchiladas for dinner last night. Nice visuals.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment. I will never forget the day I met John.
