Course Tutor Dan Green of 12 Green Acres What you will learn The morning is spent on basic butchery. There will be a brief look at health and safety aspects of dealing with meat, and the equipment needed. Dan demonstrates how to butcher a pig, discussing the various cuts and how they can be used. Dan spends the afternoon looking at the rest of the carcass (the head, offal, trotters and tail) and shows you how you can make a number of tasty products, ranging from Bath chaps and brawn to pates, faggots and pies. Administration The numbers on these days are limited to 8-10 people so that everybody can see what is going on and ask questions. There will also be an opportunity to buy some of the pork that is butchered during the day. Most of the day takes place in the butchery which is not heated so warm clothing and thick socks are needed! We provide protective clothing. The price includes all tuition, course notes, light lunch and refreshments during the day.
