Meat Curing Made Easy - Sausage Making and Many Uses for Morton's Salt - Anon Anon
MADE EASY of BUTCHERING
HOME butchering, curing and canning of pork is in the ascendancy again—more farmers join the ranks each season. Today most farmers are doing their own butchering.
The place of the hog on the American farm is being restored to its proper importance. The past tendency of many farmers to sell all their pork at stockyard prices and buy it back at retail prices is rapidly changing. Such a practice is too expensive.
No small part of the influence that has swept in the present era of home butchering has come from the helpful work of state agricultural colleges—and the practical demonstration work conducted by professors of agricultural high schools and county farm agents.
Home demonstrators have worked enthusiastically with farm women’s clubs to develop new, better, and more appetizing methods of preparing meat for safer keeping over longer periods of time. Everywhere the realization that proper use of the hog on the farm increases the prosperity of the farmer is stimulating the practice of butchering at home.
Morton’s Smoke Salt comes into this situation with an important contribution. By eliminating yesterday’s tedious and long-drawn-out practices through providing a quicker, simpler, easier and safer way to cure and smoke meat—it renders a distinct service to the farmer. By doing the entire job at the same time—it gives to the farmer a more efficient and dependable method with which to realize the advantages and economies that home-killing of meat affords.
The following is quoted from the United States Department of Agriculture Farmers’ Bulletin No. 1186 and more farm homes are yearly seeing the wisdom of this statement.
Every farm should produce the pork and pork products which are consumed on that farm.
Selling hogs and buying pork involves profits, but not for the farmer engaged in the practice.
Home curing of pork is an old practice. It nearly went out of style, but the style is rapidly becoming popular again.
Home-cured pork, fresh canned pork, sausage, scrapple, head-cheese, pickled pigs’ feet, and lard afford a variety of products to supplement the daily meals.
Better Meat is Now a Fact Instead of a Wish on Over One Million Farms. Better Sausage is Sure and Certain With Morton’s Sausage Seasoning
NO longer need the curing and smoking of meat and preserving the surplus cuts be a tedious, long-drawn-out job. With a definite step by step plan of butchering as the following illustrations make possible, and with a modern pressure cooker outfit for safely canning the surplus cuts, and the use of Morton’s sugar-curing Smoke Salt for curing and smoking the hams, bacon, shoulders, etc., the whole job can be easily finished in short order.
There is no surer way to set a better table and to increase the value of a good many farm dollars than through efficient curing and canning of pork.
Equipment
A cool, clear day, with your butchering tools all sharp and clean, is the best way to start the job.
Kind of Hogs
The best hogs for home-butchering are ones weighing from 200 to 250 pounds and eight to ten months old. The heavy 400 to 600 pound hogs or the non-thrifty young shoat should never be butchered. There are many reasons why meat from hogs weighing 400 to 600 pounds is hard to properly cool, cure and keep under normal farm conditions.
Finished meat of good quality is the main end that should be sought and meat from the extra heavy hog is always coarse and of inferior quality when compared to meat from medium weight growing hogs. It also costs considerably more to produce each pound of meat in heavy hogs than in ones of medium weight.
Care of Hogs Before Butchering
Hogs should be confined in a small pen two or three days prior to being slaughtered and for twenty-four hours before killing should not be given any food, but should have plenty of fresh water. The prevention of spoilage and likewise the foundation of quality meat begins with the live hog. The primary cause of low quality meat and meat spoilage is due to allowing the natural forms of bacteria to develop and multiply. It has been proven that keeping hogs quiet and off feed for a day before butchering will reduce the forms of natural bacteria that are present in the blood and tissues of live hogs. The job of cleaning is also made much easier when the stomach contains the minimum amount of food.
Quality meat of a sweet, rich flavor is always worth a premium. The six important steps in preventing spoilage through bacteria development and in turning out good meat are—
(1) Hogs that are quietly handled
(2) A thorough bleed
(3) Quick and efficient chilling
(4) Proper application of the Salt
(5) Cleanliness in handling the meat
(6) Proper attention when curing.
