POV: Butchering a Pig for a Restaurant

[@Madkassen2]

I'm an industrial butcher running through 3000 of these a day and this has honestly still taught me alot on improving the quality of the cuts, thanks alot.

[@Ranexi]

3000 per day equals to a bit over 6 per minute, or one every 10 seconds, assuming you work non stop for 8h. Sure thing

[@Madkassen2]

@@Ranexi If you just knew, we running slow right now because pork prices are low in Denmark. Capacity of my workplace is 12500 a day split across 2 shifts, night/day. If no mechanical issues or bad pigs we run 500 pigs/h per production line, i.e 10 a minute -+ and still have about 1:30h-2hour breaks on an 8 hour shift. It ain't pretty and not something I expect to do all my life, but it's the only way to keep the shelves stocked in your local grocery store if we all keep enjoying cheap meat. But yeah sure thing I guess ;)

[@roymarshall_]

I'm pretty sure draining the blood and removing the organs is the more difficult step. This stuff in this video is all just decoration really.

[@johnbaldwin143]

Yes! Absolutely perfect. Kudos for the shout out of the supplier and the equipment you use.

[@johnbaldwin143]

Cheek Bath Chap right there!

[@johnbaldwin143]

I know I am replying to my own posts but I just do not want to forget a comment along the way... So @18:45 I have always taught people that there are no mistakes. There are Primal then there are the choice cuts because nothing is wasted everything else can be ground. I appreciate you guys demonstrating your skills because as you have eluded to a Chef is not a Butcher and a Butcher is not a Chef! There are a couple of crossovers but not many!

[@narhwallord6985]

This is something more hands on tutorials and KZbinrs need to do. A lot of them talk to the camera, but it feels quite fake. I appreciate you're training someone, and showing us that process, because the teaching and wording seems a lot more human As a manager, I always let my employees know to keep their ears open. If they can learn from tips/advice/mistakes others make then they can really excel their learning.

[@AndyCrr]

That was really educating, thanks for sharing this with us and of course with you co worker, professional and straight to the point. Great video mate!

[@StuartForrester]

This was unbelievable to watch. Becoming my new favourite channel purely based on the transparency. Educational every time.

[@chrisc-9026]

This has quickly become my favorite channel to watch when im eating.

[@AlexxH2O]

Great, patient, thorough, educator - I'm so happy I've subbed up.

[@krisedwards4304]

Love how real slim shady is playing in the back ground lol. Love the video. Fabricated my first pig with chef a few months back, it was a fantastic experience

[@newdawnfades263]

Not only a great teacher here, but an absolutely incredible student. I have trained many many people throughout my career and I wish every one of those could have been like them. You can tell they are an absolute joy to teach. I very much hope they are going through the ranks at Fallow because in my opinion, that’s some star quality shining through.

[@sharky1154]

This is like therapy for me!! So good to watch!!!

[@trazkey]

As a meat eater I think it's very important to watch this kind of videos. For me it's educational and somewhat relaxing.

[@speeddemon2262]

I can imagine these POV videos can become great training tools as it helps a ton being able to see what is done from the chef's perspective.

[@ashleymarie9015]

I must be the worst vegetarian ever for liking this video. I have no issue if someone else eats meat as long as it’s shown the respect it deserves like you guys did today. Thanks

[@jsdailyvideos7304]

fraud veggie lol

[@AriasMalarias]

This is amazing Fallow, loving your videos so far

[@aaronleadley8245]

I'm a sous these days, this video reminded me of my first month at my first weekend job as a butchers boy. Great insightful teaching, supportive and detailed with useful knowledge expanding tangents without waffling. Top drawer Chef.

[@siimbuh]

This was an amazing watch. I'm no chef, but iI love to cook and could now butcher a pig. Loved that you explained the entire process

[@abrielrobertsson4160]

Guanciale is not just used for carbonara. It's used heavily in Italian cuisine and pastas, like griccia, amatriciana, etc. Lovely video, I learned quite a lot from it. Probably one of the best butchering tutorials in this platform. Being a pov also helps.

[@starrrkkk]

Ciao bello

[@cedriclarocque9243]

guanciale is in fact use for carbonara

[@ethanrichardson5139]

I'm just obsessed that the bar man decided to stay and watch haha. But I would have too to be honest. So intresting!

[@R3tr0humppa]

Never thought a proper bone saw belongs in a kitchen, too. Gives off some Sweeney Todd vibes. :P Love your educational stuff, and the POV. Keep 'em coming, greetings from Germany!

[@uzbekistanplaystaion4BIOScrek]

I was under the impression that it is important to clean both the blade of the saw and the meat around the cut after sawing through a bone to prevent bone dust and chips from accidentally ending up on people's plates. Am I wrong about this or do you just clean the meat later on during prep? Thanks for the video, pov stuff from the kitchen is pretty interesting!

[@tomworton3470]

Keep doing what you're doing, I am fixed! You guys are crushing it.

[@RamonLopez-ug4kk]

Superb content. Really excellent videos on your channel.

[@KevDee]

I did an apprenticeship at a butchery... never cut any meat myself and I hated the job with a passion but I can't help but be interested in watching pro's explain their work.

[@lukewarm2075]

Uh you didn't make it through the shit part of an apprenticeship I reckon you would have loved once you started cutting but definitely not an easy job and precise trade I don't think I could do it also.

[@mortem4342]

Wait I might be dumb asl so sorry in advance but wtf were you doing during your apprenticeship that you didnt even get to cut something? It's like the whole point of being a butcher

[@KevDee]

@@mortem4342 weighing, selling, cleaning. we weren't allowed to cut any meat until the college taught us but they were taking ages trying to get stuff setup. You'd think they'd get things setup before people got hired but nah.

[@mortem4342]

@@KevDee ah ok that makes sense thanks for explaining, but real fucking inept of them to not teach you guys before you got hired regardless lmao

What sharpener are you using there? Do you use it in tandem with a stone, or just that one?

[@jarekbo9383]

Incredible how calmly he explains everything You can see he want to teach her and she wants to learn Great combination The only thing I didn’t like is when the chef scraped the plastic board with a cleaver And also he didn’t wipe the knife after he sharpened it Only my observations 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@charliemoss6502]

Hello, fellow chef here(although not as skilled) what is that sharpener you used for your butchery knives called? I work in very well established steakhouse and I could use one of them. I also love your content and have also been actively looking to work with you in the future.

[@galore2004]

The way i was listening with full undivided attention throughout the whole time as if i was there and was working omg hire me at this point

[@jonnyanderson2271]

I’d like to get that stage in my career. Able to identify cuts, deboning every cut and able to make dishes related to that cut. Once I feel confident in achieving that stage, I may relax a bit more with my career. Thanks guys! 🙏👏😎👊

Good one, but in Australia, the folded egg isn’t like that. Ironically a cross between American and English. Folded egg in Aus isn’t that stiff like an omelette almost. You pull it off the heat when it’s “ scrambled” but still holds together just before everything drops being liquid. To be fair, wouldn’t solve that folded egg to anyone and I’m based in Sydney 👍😬
