Final Hair Removal, Gutting, and Cooling

What happens here

Use a tractor's front-end loader, or similar equipment, to lift the gambrel and hang the hog. Once hung, any remaining stubborn hairs can be singed off using a propane torch. After final hair removal, the internal organs are removed (this graphic step is not shown). The video host explains that organs like chitterlings (chittlins), liver, and heart are often consumed or given away. The hog is then transported to a cool, shady spot to hang overnight, allowing the meat to chill, especially if outdoor temperatures are low (e.g., in the 20s Fahrenheit).

Goal: Clean the hog and prepare it for quartering by removing internal organs and chilling the carcass.
