Half or Whole Hog Deposit
Half or Whole Hog Deposit
This is only a deposit to secure your order. The remaining total will be due upon receiving your meat.
Whole pig is $2/lb live weight, minus deposit
Half pig is $2.75/lb live weight, minus deposit
Pigs in confinement typically weigh 250-275lbs at butcher. Our pigs weigh 375 to 400lbs. We slow feed our pigs, by hand. Our pigs are heritage pigs and we think they need to grow slowly, to lay down their amazing fat and marbling.
So a price on a whole would be around $750 plus butcher fee. Remember, it’s 100lbs more pig, it WILL be more meat!
If you ordered a half hog, it would be half the price above.
Once confirmed, we will let you know when your butcher date is and what the half or whole pigs live weight is from the butcher.
Then, you will call the butcher to work out the cut-sheet. Dont worry, pig cut sheet is easy. Only thing to make sure to decide - if you want boneless or bone-in butts and hams.
We can certainly help you, if you need help with the cut sheet.
Pick-Up:
You can pay for the butcher fees upon pick-up from the butcher. Make sure to have your cut-sheet handy and tell them if something is wrong and if any cuts aren’t sealed, they can re-seal them for you.
Payment to us should be made when we tell you the live weight. Check or cash is preferred. Credit cards can certainly be accepted, but don’t kill us for charging an extra 3% of the remaining total.
