RE: lbs of meat in a hog
it really depends on , if you do it yourself or someone else.if you have a butcher do it; then you get about 50%
they tend to get the main meat and throw out the hard stuff.
me I will get about 65%; thats allboned out for sasuage.if you keep all the rib bones and ham bones, then you get maybe70%.the bones are a lot of the weight.
