I’m not sure where to ask this question but this subreddit seems like the most logical place.

My wife and I have a full pig (250-300 lbs) going in for butchering tomorrow and my brother-in-law, who’s dropping the pigs off at the butcher, is asking what we want out of it. I have no idea what to ask for and I won’t be talking to the butcher. My question for anyone on here, is what would you recommend?Some information about me is that I smoke a lot of meats (pulled pork, ribs, etc when it comes to pork) and recently started making my own bacon, but I’m clueless on what exactly are all my options on a full pig.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
