    OMG! I haven't seen this since I was on the farm as a child and growing up. It always made me cry but Dad took care. It always tasted good and the cattle entered the same area. MidOhio/Indiana area.

      Isn't those tanks made with galvanized metal? I was alwaysed told it wasn't safe to breathe any fumes with the fire underneath the tanks. I boiled traps in a 👧 trash can when I was told it wasn't safe to breathe.

    My family did this every winter in the 50s and 60s. Oops, I just told you how old I am. Anyway, we would butcher two and move on to an uncle and do it again. All the relatives helped each other until we were done. No modern equipment back then.

    Josh, I've read a lot about Appalachian history and traditions. Absolutely amazing how these people perfected ways of doing things very efficiently, safety, and cost effective.
    I live in the largest city in Appalachia, Pittsburgh. Some of these traditions are still used here in our rural areas
    Thanks for sharing this! Really cool to see and have a better understanding of what needs to happen.

    Here in Amish country as well.
    It’s nothing for them to do 4-6 hogs with family and neighbors.
    Great time for camaraderie.
    Great times Josh!

    Great video. I think it does a great job of depicting life on a farm. I remember doing stuff like this as a teenager when my dad kept livestock. I hope to get my own livestock some day, if only I could afford to quit my corporate job. Thanks for the video.

    Growing up in the 60s, and 70s we butchered a hog and a young bull every year, plus we had deer and wild hogs that roamed or property. I will be setting back up to continue the tradition, on the Cajun Homestead. I miss them days.

    Josh we butchered many years with older folks and never heard of using lime for scalding we used rosin for scalding but we have since switched to skinning the hogs on butcher day always glad to learn something from you

    The "single tree" is a "gambrel" sometimes called a gambling stick in the deep south. A single tree would work but it is really a device used with draft animals.

    • @appl3jax498
      @appl3jax498 Před 6 měsíci

      Depends on your state. We have had several farmers taken to court over this matter and the farmers' won their case. Government is trying hard to interfere. I prefer getting my meat from local farmers.

      Typically yes, some states have different regulations but generally requires processing at an inspected facility to be able to sell.
