Homemade Sausage Making

Porcine Myology

One of the slickest presentations I`ve ever seen, has been provided free of charge to us by the University Of Nebraska in Lincoln, Nebraska. These folks take their meats seriously and share their technology. Be sure to check out the following website. I`ve got it set to come up on the ham page but I`m sure you`ll also wish to click on the home page as well. Poke around and learn how to use the slides and rotations. You`ll be amazed at the technology here and refer to it often. Thanks Nebraska!

That link no longer works, but here's a link to the 3D rotation. You can click on an section of the pig and then any part of the cross-section to get information on any specific muscle.

Be sure to check out the sections under the "muscles" drop-down menu as well as videos and sub-primals sections, found under "fabrication".

Great site.
