Re: Big Hog vs. AK
Dan...
Not to hijack the OP's thread, but no hogs here in my immediate AO, so we have to go somewhere to hunt 'em. We went to middle Tennessee for this hunt. Not too far for us to go, and wouldn't be for you either coming out of SE Ohio. I have an offer to go down to Tx this coming spring, the boy and I might do it, sounds fun....
We ate him, it was a year ago, so it's pretty much gone. Brought him home quartered in coolers and butchered it ourselves. We made a ton of different kinds of sausage, and kept the back straps and a few roasts for the grill and crockpot. The bacon was a lot leaner than tame hog so we just ground it up with the sausage. A little different taste/cooking smell than the hogs we raise here, but then again they eat/live different too. A long slow cook, and some marinade, will fix about anything <grin>.
Yeah, his ass had a nice even rub, didn't it.......
