I gave it a beautiful sear over high direct heat and the lowered the temp, add some wood chips and smoked for a hour + per side

I brought the hams up to 165' before pulling it

After resting for half an hour it fell apart at the joints and was falling off the bones

Same as any heritage breed hog versus mass produced/farmed hogs, apples and oranges.
There is real flavor in these piggies.
Go buy a free range Berkshire, shoot a mixed breed feral or Russian hog, and you'll know real swine flavor and why it is so highly regarded.
The swine is divine!

NICE!!!

I so want some shoats but I can't consistently get into feral hogs since I don't have land that they are on and my other options are either unreliable or very short lived.

Also I too cut my pork meat with a fork and a pistol :P hahahaha

Great looking meal!
Like the pistol too. What type caliber?

 

[chilerelleno]

Thank you sir.
You and me both, I have to rely on WMAs and or my buddy's hunting property.
LoL Dinner and a Gun was a popular thread at several firearms forums.
