When sold this way, 1/6th means that the meat of an entire pig is ground and divided into six portions. To make it less confusing for you, we standardize 1/6th to yield 20 lbs. of packaged ground pork.
State regulations require that we charge you by the hanging weight. In this case, that is 37 lbs. The actual hanging weight needed to produce 20 pounds of ground pork is 37 lbs.
State regulations require that you pay Quality Meats directly for processing. I cannot include processing in my price to you. This is total animal ground meat. Not trim or scraps but all the meat from the hog goes into the grind. Naturally raised, medication free, hormone free, antibiotic free, pasture raised pork.
Our animals eat a broad range of plants and are fed a special diet high in oats to give the meat full and delicious flavor. You cannot buy such meat in any store. It takes too much work and care. No “production system” that supplies large markets can do this.
You can also have livers and kidneys from these animals at no additional charge except processing. (Quantities are limited as available.)
For the details of claiming those special parts, talk to Quality Meats. 320 968 7218
We harvest hogs for ground pork from September until December. You can order as many 1/6ths as you wish.
I can help with metro delivery if needed. Please ask if you have further questions.

Why do we sell “Ground Pork by the 1/6th”?
The entire hog carcass is converted into ground. We work with Quality Meats in Foley. They take special care of our customers and do an excellent job. Quality Meats controls the % of fat in the ground meat to produce ground pork that is close to 85% lean. That is optimum for ground pork cooking.
This meat is excellent for any dish that requires ground pork. You will also find that it makes delicious, NOT greasy burgers that you can cook and serve just like beef hamburger.
This whole-hog ground is unique to Snake River Farm. Other ground pork is made from trim and scraps.
