Meat Gambrel
- Hog Scraper - When manually processing a slaughtered pig for its meat before modern mechanized processing methods, farmers or butchers removed protective bristles and hairs by hand-scraping the hide with a tool like this. Dipping the carcass in warm water first loosened the bristles. After scraping, the hide is removed, and the meat is processed. Bristles and hides may then be sold as by-products of butchering.
