I also get the cracklins for hubby and the lard to cook with. Yes, I know years ago we were told that lard was bad for you and you should forgo it for Crisco and margarine but all I have to say is that I can pronouce "lard" but not some of the ingredients in margarine, I will just stick with my lard for farmhouse biscuits and the like thank you very much. I even know the pig it came from.
I am so excited that we got our pork in the freezer. We have a friend who raises pigs on pasture and we have purchased pork from her for the last several years. I would like to start doing this myself but haven't made the leap yet. Until then I have visited my friend's farm, I have seen the frolicking piggies running amuck on pasture, and I am quite pleased to report that the pork is SUPREME!!! We just picked up our share of the hog that we are splitting with some friends this time around and I am almost giddy with excitement as there is no bacon or sausage that can hold a candle to farm fresh pork straight from the butcher.
