I have always purchased my meat from a butcher, but have the opportunity to have a hog slaughtered. Arnold is 235 lbs now and they still have to fatten him a little more. It was raised by a local 4H kid and i can get it butchered however i like. Is there anything i should ask for, or just have them do it "normally". Only thing i could think of was that i have never done a whole shoulder, only done butts. Would it be worth it to get the two shoulders whole? Is there really an advantage to doing them whole? Anything else i should ask for? Thanks
