Had my last 2 hogs processed (sold 1 and kept 1) this past week. Both came in at 425lbs live, and about 290lbs hanging. Other than the hams, bacon and a couple other cuts that are being smoked here's my haul. Also, I kept all the fat to make my own lard and hopefully some krackelings! Woot woot!
 
Wow cool! [emoji]128526[/emoji] I would love to have a big jar of rendered leaf lard. I thought about trying to render some using a crock pot. I can't find that lard however.
 
Pretty sure i got some. They just put all the fat into a large bag and froze it. Hope ill be able to tell which is which.

Maybe more pure looking & a little lighter? I just know it doesn't have much taste to it... so it's better for some things you want to cook more delicate
