Training Information: CED-0588 - Introduction to Butchering Pork

This training will focus on the breakdown and various cuts of a pig. Here in the US, the pig is heavily used in the sausage and value-added market. However, the middle meats are becoming just as popular as beef. Learn about the most dedicated animal in the meat industry. Participants will get to take home some of their very own prepared meat cuts, as well as an entry level meat cutting knife.
