    (although one can wrap what little is left in silver foil and freeze it to make a beef curry next weekend)
    before you freeze (first time) cut into suitable portions, pop in to freezer bags & label.

    We love reduced bought a 33p leg of lamb last night - yummy!

    I am loving the meaty threads today. I should talk to the missus about getting a chest freezer.

    I had one last year. Got it from a friend whose family keep them so got to see the piglets first too (there was a webcam at one point but I think mummy pig took exception to it).

    Come to think of it, there's a pack of fat lurking in the freezer ready to be made into scratchings. I used the hairy bar snacks recipe before - highly recommended nom nom nom
