Yoder Family Farms Duroc Pork - Lone Tree, Iowa

Yoder Family Farms Duroc Pork produced its first pigs in 2018, but the vision for our farm began much earlier than that. When my dad retired from his farrow-to-finish operation in 2008 after 35 years in the business I was determined to raise pigs again. From that point forward the planning began and the foundation of the plan was to raise a pig that we would be proud to directly market to our family, friends, and neighbors. We want to deliver the highest quality pork to the consumer. To do that we chose the Duroc breed for our farm. Having Duroc pigs allows us to not only produce pigs outside in the ever changing Iowa environments, but also the potential to produce high quality pork through genetic progress. Every animal we raise is the result of careful consideration and decisions with the sole goal of producing tender and tasty pork.

We are proud to share the results of that plan with everyone. Our farm is not only about raising pigs, but producing the highest quality pork that everyone can enjoy. We hope that you enjoy the pork that we raised as we work on building a farm that will supply pork in Eastern Iowa for generations to come.

Thank you,

What is pork loin/ How to cook

The pork loin can be either bone in or boneless and is derived from the loin of the pig which is located between the shoulder and the leg. Not to be confused with the pork tenderloin, the pork loin is typically sold in 2-4 pound roasts or cut into chops. Pork loin roasts are best prepared when brined or rubbed with a spice mixture and then roasted or grilled over indirect heat and cooked to 145- 160 degrees to insure a flavorful and juicy bite. 

Are pork loin and pork tenderloin the same thing?

Pork loin and pork tenderloin both come from the loin of the pig, but are not the same thing. Pork loin is a larger cut best prepared when roasted in the oven or grilled over indirect heat, then sliced against the grain and served. The tenderloin is a more narrow and slender cut that typically weighs about 1 lbs, the tenderloin is great for marinades or rubs and is best prepared pan- seared, roasted or on the grill, and then sliced across the grain and served as tenderloin medallions.
