Kunekune pork, The other Red Meat!
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 01. 2022
- We were able to get our first kunekune pigs harvested and it didn't disappoint. We started raising kunekune pigs for their meat and after almost 3 years were able to get our first kunes processed. In the video we talk about how much they weighed and also we show you some of the dark red marbled meat!

Ham hocks and greens(collard, mustard or turnip). Ham hocks also provide excellent flavoring for a pot of beans(fresh green beans, Pintos or Anasazi). If you got those hocks smoked, even better. Plenty of recipes on the internet. Neck bones are great for making bone broth. Bone broth has all kinds of nutritional and immune system benefits.
We love the broth with chicken I’m sure the pork would be great too
Yes! My mom makes all of these all the time. Delicious!
The meat looks awesome. All that hard work is paying off. It’s cool seeing your farm journey and how you’re making it happen. Keep up the good work.
Thank you
Just an FYI, that you can ask for specific cuts (no need to get cuts you won't eat or cook) and ask for the bones and fat, etc.
Thanks for sharing the pork processing results. We are raising our first two feeders - they’re just 7 months, but it looks like it’ll be worth the wait! 😉
That’s awesome I’m sure it will be
Oh wow we were there in January and picked up our trio of kune's, we met with you, your wife, and daughter, such an awesome family, our pigs are getting big and they are sooooo sweet, thank you so much for them😊
Awesome glad to hear your pigs are doing well!
new subscriber, and I am binge watching your content! We are getting our first pigs this weekend. I am so very nervous and intimidated! These are more helpful than I can say!
That is awesome thanks for following along!! Don’t hesitate to ask questions love to help when we can!
Great harvest! I hope you keep the updates on how you cooked some of these meat cuttings. I really enjoy the content you put out to educate your fans. God bless and have a great 2022!
Hey Roger thanks for the support we will do our best to keep you updated on the cuts. Always looking for new ways to cook the meat
You trying to show us how little snow you have lol too funny lol
Hocks go in beans!!
Beans all day long!
7:13 for ppl who wanna see the cuts :D meat looks great guys!!!!!
Ham hocks make a great addition to Lima beans!! Along with bacon and Tasso! The best!! Nice meat haul!
Awesome thanks for sharing we’ll have to try it
Ham hocks go good in soup beans. Also green beans and potatoes.
Thanks for sharing
One of my favorite pork recipes is "Transylvanian Goulash" from Americas Test Kitchen/Cook's Country. It calls for a 3 1/2 lbs boneless pork butt roast. Even with grocery store bought meat it turns out so amazingly succulent and tender. I can't imagine how much better it would be with KuneKune meat. I also would kill for Carnitas made with KuneKune! Rick Bayless has a great recipe for that...calls for pork shoulder. Insanely delicious!
Awesome I’ll have to look those up
Your eyes look very pretty in the cold weather❄
Loved this video!
Thanks
If you request it , would the butcher leave the whole tenderloin, and the ribs a rack? thank you.
I’m sure they would weren’t really sure what to ask for but now we know
@@KCFarms
Thank you for your help!
I like your style dude, just subscribed. Thinking of getting some Kune pigs when I get set up for it. Appreciate the info.
Awesome thanks for the sub! You’ll love Kunes
Don't think I've seen this mentioned in the comments yet so I'll go out on a limb and suggest it. If you smoke those hocks they are the most necessary ingredient in split pea soup besides maybe the peas themselves!
Great harvest..I finish ours on plums..delish.
Great looking meat ! How old was your 204 lb pig .???
If you get chains here's some advice
Straight across chains have the problem of falling between deep treads of certain tires but are the most affordable
Slightly better than that is field chains they connect the cross chains into circles to help prevent the cross chains falling into the treads
And finally for the most aggressive chains there is log skidder chains they have solod steel ring half an inch thick with protrusions from the ring these will destroy black top pavement but they are meant for the worst of conditions
Awesome thanks for the advice
Im hoping you got the bones back. There is nothing more healthy than bone broth! And so simple. Thanks for the great video!
How did you feed them? How much does it cost to process a Kune Kune?
We use Neck bones for making Sauce for spaghetti
Our meat pigs are about ready to process. I don’t know how backed up the butchers are in your area, but here in North Texas and Southern Oklahoma, they are 8+ months out. We’re most likely going to process them ourselves this time.
Your pigs are all so healthy and beautiful. I love watching your videos and getting actual useful information on the pros and cons of everyday farm life. It is a lot different now from when I was a kid, so I need all of the help I can get. 😆
I haven’t noticed Hazel in any videos lately. Was she a meat pig or rehomed and I just missed it?
All of ours were booked out to 2023-2024 except the one we went to had a date and got us in that kind goodness.
Thank you for your kind words and following along.
Hazel unfortunately went to the freezer:(
Put them ham hocks in green or bean (string bean or pintos) . You can cook the hammocks along too with a few sides of choice.
Awesome thanks
Meat looks beautiful!
Thanks
For the ham hocks I recommend making schweinshaxe, or roasted pork knuckle. It's a German delicacy. It is very delicious. Many recipes available on CZcams.
I’ll have to look it up
I agree with this as well. Also you can never go wrong with southern pinto beans and ham hocks over fried potatoes along with a slice of cornbread.
Sounds great
Kunekune❤❤❤
Hi! Thanks for the video! I am new to this homesteading thing, we just got 2 kunes. Did you worry about taint with your kunes? I’ve heard conflicting things about taint, how it’s mostly from commercially raised pigs who inhale and walk in their feces all day. What are your experiences?
We have butchered 3 intact males and haven’t had any issues we kept away from females once we decided we were going to butcher them
@@KCFarms great to know, thank you!
Meat looks great!
Thanks
When its snowy out or just not that pleasant just put the feed in the bucket of the tractor and use it, less chance of getting stuck, plus you have a cab lol. Send some of that snow down here to texas! I miss it!
Not a bad idea we have done that before but it’s really hard to get the water around bouncing on the tractor
The meat looks great, can’t wait till I take mine to the butcher’s
Season your vegtables with ham hocks & neckbones. Greens. Green beans. Kale. Neckbones for stew like roast. Neckbones w/egg noodles anything really. Use bay leaves too. Boil 30mins rinse then boil a few hours & add whatever you want
Yet another great video, you guys are to much :) I sent an email about how us hillbillies use them hocks and neckbones. Also, check out the bacon link I sent you. Don't forget to check their files section, under the about tab. Hope clearing the snow with tractor kept you from getting stuck this time?
Awesome thanks for sending the recipes
@@KCFarms Your welcome
Smoke the ham hocks and use them for flavoring in your beans or black eye peas!!!
Thanks for sharing!!
OMG. Your kunekunes are adorable. Thank you for recommending this amazing kunekune book "The encyclopedia of Kunekunes" . The book has been of great insight and helpful. the book has been my kunekune bible. it is the best kunekune book out there.
"Can I get a thicker cut tenderloin" 🤣🤣🤣 dude thats literally how thick it grew bro. Tenderloins one of the thinnest muscles, and kunekune is one of the smallest pigs. You want a thicker tenderloin, grow a bigger pig.
Could you do a follow up video and let us know your favorite cuts and recipes?
We won’t have another butcher for a bit but that would be a good idea
Ham Hocks make great baked beans/soup/broth/gravy.
Ham hocks are nature's bullion cube - throw em into beans, soups, sauces...same goes with chicken feet!
Good haul
Thanks
Is what you laid on the counter from about one of the pigs?
Hmm good question I just grabbed a couple of the cuts I would say it was probably 1/4 to a small half not 100% sure. We knew they are smaller than regular feed hogs but we were surprised at how much we got back from them
Ham hocks is for flavoring the water and adding meat for cooking greens and beans.
Thanks
What are the white container things used for out with the herd of pigs?
Those are “pigloos”. Water tanks they we use for housing.
@@KCFarms that’s a GENIUS idea! I’ve been struggling to find a simple “barn” idea! How are they in winter?
They have worked great we just load their bedding in them and they all huddle in and stay warm
I like smoked ham hocks in pintos and split pea soup
God bless
We make bone broth out of the neck bones and can it.
Sounds great thanks
Hammock cooked in beans, green beans, black beans, cooked with greens
Thanks
Ham hocks and beans! Or collard greens ☺️🤠
Do you have the next meat pigs picked out, or will you choose some from future piglets?
It's good for the breed to eat the 'worst' pigs. Especially 'bad' females are good to keep and eat, so they won't reproduce in pet homes. Barrows are great for 'just pets', calmest temperament and absolutely no accidental breeding😆
Yes we do pigs that haven’t met our conformation standards are next years meat pigs
So you can expect about a 73% hanging weight on these Kunekune?
Ham hock's and black eyed peas. Hammocks and pinto beans.
Awesome thanks!
Sorry but what idi... of butcher slices uncured bacon? First cure and then slice it up. The meat looks great but that just freaked me out
how many lbs of butchered meat did you get back?
We do our own butchering to save money and I can cut to my desire
We are hoping to eventually learn how to butcher pigs. We just do chickens now
throw the hamhocks in greens or limas
poor vegans
