I’ve always gutted my small hogs before processing. Tonight this little girl showed up and she’s marinating for my hunters for the weekend. I’ve never boned out a small hog without gutting. This is the only way to do one. From death to the cooler was less than 30 minutes.

It doesn't take that long to just take out the backstraps and tenderloins. No hide removal required.
One shot is all it should take.

I usually don’t gut them (or deer) anymore, but skin them down to where I can debone them.
Not my monkeys, not my circus...

I've come to suspect that 'traditional butchery' came from the necessity of getting all the food you possibly could off of game or livestock. That's how we get such great delicacies as pickled pigs' feet, sausage, bones for soup etc. Scrapple too, or chorizo, or boudin.. Now the fact that we have such an abundance of food that we can afford to leave some.. that's nice! Way to think different - I don't see any issue!

Scalebuster, I haven't gutted deer or hog in about 10 years. It saves me time, mess, and I don't miss any meat by leaving em in there. Nice job.
