Buying a pig advice
Posted: Sun Sep 17, 2017 4:18 pm
Last year we split a pig with the in laws and we were helpless when it came to choosing what we got. This year I got his number and would like to see what you folks get when it comes to this.
He just sent me a text saying his going rate is $1.80 per pound for hanging weight. Does this seem decent? I know prices will be different depending on the area but when it comes to the bacon and such that's cheap here. Even ribs and such only get as low as $1.68 when they are on sale.
What all do you guys normally ask for? I know this can depend on what he makes too but I was curious what you guys get since we smoke a lot of food here...
