Ned, what's the reason for leaving the liver, heart and lungs in? I always see them hanging out in all the Australian pictures and was wondering.
G'day Mike, heart lungs etc are left in for the meat inspectors to check for signs of disease at the processing plant. They are hanging out because they are required by the terms of the game harvesting licensing system to be free of the chest cavity. This is to allow the chest cavity to air cool. These pigs are for human consumption so the rules are fairly strict.
Cheers.
