Breaking Down A Hog Into Primal Cuts

Welcome Friends! Welcome to the kitchen, and today I have my friend Jamie who is a butcher, author, educator, and we have a side of hog that we are going to break down / cut up into the primals. In future episode in this series we will cut each of the primals into cuts that you will recognize at the meat counter.
