...how to use the whole animal: The loins make it straight onto the dinner menu, the bones are used for stock, the skin is used for pork rinds, and the head becomes coppa di testa (head cheese). Bailey devils the hearts and tosses them on the grill for an “awesome little treat,” and he’s saving the kidneys for a winter kidney and steak pie.

A hundred years ago the motto was "use everything but the squeal." Nothing new under the sun.

I’ve always heard that wild pigs didn’t taste good. I would think that these are raised similar to wild pigs, so why do they taste better?
