Just that can I raise a potbelly pig for meat. I have limited space so it seems logical. How much meat do you get, and is it worth it. Just a thought thxs

You can but they taste funny, are extremely greasy, and kind of tough.  Meat tends to not taste to good. BUT it can be done.

I use them as sausage. It comes out good but the other cuts arent too wonderfull and are small. But the hams are great country cured.small but really good.
