The Pig

  • Put a request out for recommendations on Huntsville's subreddit
  • Kirk said he has farm connections if we want to utilize them in 2015

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

  • Pig Order with Rocket City Meats Cancelled on 5/15/14. --Omegix (talk) 15:56, 15 May 2014 (CDT)
  • 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.

Stuff to Cook Pig

  • Wood Chips: (BrokenTrace?)

  • Injection Kits: Jeff Purchased 3 x "Cajun Garlic" @ $4.99 / ea. Total Cost = 1.08 * 3 * 4.99 = $17.17
