The video highlights the six primal cuts of the hog – the shoulder butt, loin, leg, side and picnic shoulder – and informs from which primal the various pork cuts and pork products emanate.

“As many consumers shop for meat during the start of the grilling season and National Barbeque Month, it’s important to know the many different cuts of pork available today, and how each should be properly cooked,” said Booren.© “I hope the video encourages consumers to try a new cut they might just be learning about, too.”©
