The Pig

Winchester, TN

  • Pig comes skin off, but they can do a 110-120 lb pig (post processing) for around $225.
  • This plan involves Michele and Jeff taking a day off work to go up to Winchester and retrieve the pig.
    • Unless I can convince them to let us pick the pig up after working hours
  • Pig itself is being purchased from one of Michele's Family's Neighbors.
  • The pig will be processed at Mac's Slaughter House - (931) 967-1288. Processing is $65. They will gut, skin, and leave the head on.

Rocket City Meats

  • Requesting a pig between 100 and 110 pounds
  • $3.79 a pound / $417.00 @ 110lb
    • He said there's a virus that is killing off the pigs overseas so a lot of what america is producing is getting shipped out. This has risen the cost of pig.
