    Just a few suggestions from someone who has done this longer than you have been alive, if you have a grinder, grind your fat it will cook down much faster, no grinder make your pieces as small as you can. Also you can use either a roaster or a crocpot on low and it will be easier to keep it going, just crack the lid off a little to allow the steam to escape. check it about every 15 to 20 minutes once it gets to melting good and keep it stirred. Liquid gold I use it for everything, baking, frying anything you can use either crisco or butter for you can use the lard and it is MUCH healthier for you. Good job and god bless.

      Hello, I've heard the same thing, that lard is actually better for you than many of the other oils. Plus some like the flavor better, I enjoy cooking finger steaks in the lard.

    On my grandfather's farm in West Tennessee as a boy I remember "Hog Killing Day" being sometime after the first hard frost. Everything was processed outdoors. Hogs were killed, scalded and prepped on day one, and hung in the smokehouse for few days. Lard was processed on day two, on day one it was gathered cut and frozen, on day two it was coarsely ground (my cousins and I were the "grinders") and rendered. Grandmother and aunts did the rendering, and I'll be honest I do not remember what they put the lard into, but it was kept in the root cellar and my grandmother went through a LOT of it ( Usually there were 4 hogs a year butchered in the fall). I do know it was used in biscuits, pie crusts and for frying but I was a youngster back then (mid 1950's) and my memories may have faded a bit over the years. STILL, a great video Josh, and it does take me back to my childhood!!

    We used to "process" our hogs when I was a kid. Nothing went to waste. My grandmother used to make our own hog head cheese. Had many cracklin cornbreads. If you have never had CC, it is a must to your viewers. Best part, this is all natural.
    PS: worst part was scraping the hog after it was dipped in boiling water in a 55 gal drum with a wood fire under it.

    When I was A kid back in the fifties my dad worked at the local butcher shop. Every Thursday they rendered lard and I would run down there after school to put lids on the lard tubs. my payment was the few cracklins they would leave in the vat for me. Lord I would give anything for a handful of fresh cracklins

    We don’t raise hogs anymore but my wife saves the “lard” from frying bacon. We raised Yorkshire Hampshire cross hogs and they were actually quite lean; a 250 pound hog only rendered about a gallon of lard. Our boar, Elmo J. Hogwaller weight a little over 1000 lbs when we butchered him and was about 10 feet long and almost 40” tall. The sows weighed between 450 and 550 lbs. the pigs were 250 lbs at six months old, perfect for bar-b- que and lean meat.

Neighbors and us getting together with my parents for a good old hog killing again this year. Big hog is probably around 350lb, smaller one around 250lbs with a gimpy leg.
    Ain't bought grocery store pork, beef, or poultry for years...God Bless Brother. You're welcome up here anything you'uns come up to Ashe.

    I always recommend heating your jars before putting anything hot in them. I have a jar in the oven right now heating. I had some fat, not much, from our ham I cooked and small bag in the freezer I saved and have it rendered. It's been a minute since I did it last and thought I'd watch a video on the canning part. I will only get about a pint, but, that's ok. That is one pint I won't have to buy and it will make what I've done in the past last longer.

    • @tinafawcett9569

  • @roadrunner123
    @roadrunner123 2 года назад +11

    Very cool! Update: I had 40 lbs. Of pork shoulder for a school fundraising event. I removed all the fat and I actually rendered the lard from the fat scraps. I got a full quart and 1/2 a pint size. (Beautiful fat).The crackling are dangerously addicting so I'm putting them out for the racoons!

      bro...get your degree, get that education....and use that career as a tool to take you where you want to be in life. I'm just shy of a masters degree in science....I value education...I'm a registered nurse..but currently work full time here on the farm. Get that career first...make your first investment the most important one....an investment in yourself...then all of this will fall right into place. Nothing worse than living rural and being broke....big land cost big bucks to keep up. Get out of debt, save your money, make smart moves and make those moves at the right time! Live is like a mason jar full of muddy water....in time, the mud will settle to the bottom and all of this will become clear...just make sure that you're making your initial investment in yourself...then the muddy water will subside and your path will be clear. It takes time, use it wisely...don't wait till you're 50!

    I just cut up an 8lb. pork shoulder and have 9 pints in the canner at the moment. I took the fat from trimming and am rendering it down right now too. In a saucepan with water, boil for an hour or so and then let cool and put in the fridge. I will then scoop off the top layer and melt it down again and strain through cheesecloth. I also do the same when I make bacon and keep the dripping in a paper cup on the back of the stove. WAY better than butter for eggs, etc and it imparts a bacon flavor to the eggs without actual bacon being present. Thanks for the great video, I will look into getting some leaf fat from a local butcher.

    Good stuff! The glare off the window is definitely gone...but I thought this was the front of trailer and so there would be no trees out that window....could be wrong though. If it is the back of house, it should be the shrub brush between trailer and upper garden/cows...so we should see solid bush I figure. Either way, the bottom pane of trees appears to be cut off mid way...bottom not match top. You put a picture over the window perhaps?? Yes, cutting smaller speeds the process..as does grinding it. I quite often use my oven for rendering but have to watch as it can overheat and lard will not be white. A quart of lard would be lucky to last me 8 weeks - bread and baking. lol. Never made cornbread or had it with cracklins! Good job yet again Josh.

    Saw another homesteader who recommended grinding it. If you're going to go through this process more frequently a good meat grinder might be a good investment.

    My father-in-law's family used to use hog fat as a preservative, keeping bacon or other meats in jars or crocks filled with the far. It kept the air out, apparently.

    Don't se anything missing. Of course I am always waiting on something or I'm a box short of finishing. So it looks like its was a job well done. Like the lard vid also.

    I always pour hot oil, grease whatever in a metal pan before into a jar. I let it cool before placing into a jar.

    Cool-you can also make classic soap out of that. You are incredibly resourceful what to do with wild pigs. Don't throw away the fat!
