  I really would love it if you broke this video down to show in detail how each of these methods were used. Those videos would be worth their weight in salt 😉

  People forget our grandparents survived without modern tech. These methods aren’t outdated — they’re proven by history.

  Mom was born in 1910, grew up on a farm, no elect, everything was cooked on a woodstove and the house was heated by a potbelly. They raised Poland China pigs and Grandma would put a layer of lard, then salt, then meat, more salt and another layer of lard and so on. The crocks of meat were stored in a cool area and was preserved for a long time, of course with 6 kids, it probably didn&apos;t get a long time in preservation. Grandpa smoked the bacon cuts and some smoked hams.

  What amazes me most is how people figured out these methods through experience and necessity. That&apos;s a level of practical knowledge we&apos;ve largely lost.

  When I was little, my grandparents, in Alabama, would kill and salt cure a huge pig. <br>We lived in Arizona, and a trucker friend would bring us huge pieces of salted pig. OMG, it was amazing. <br>And it kept forever. I miss those days. When people and family would care for each other.

  This is why part of my &apos;prep pack&apos; is five &apos;10 pound vac packs&apos; of sea salt. There was a time when salt was more valuable then GOLD! (and this is why)
