I saw him holding a sharp knife and inserting the tip of the knife between the ribs and the meat, separating the ribs from the pork.
The tip of the knife pried open the joint, and the upper and lower spines separated. A large piece of ribs with almost no meat was perfectly removed.
Manager Liu and Mrs. Ye were both stunned watching.
Only after Master Cen had removed all the bones from the wild boar's abdomen did Shopkeeper Liu finally come to his senses. He gave him a thumbs-up and said, "Your cooking skills are truly amazing!"
Elder Cen smiled and wiped the knife in his hand, then picked up the whetstone and continued sharpening it a few times. While sharpening the knife, he said to Mrs. Ye, "Don't worry, it all depends on your skill. I'll teach you later. You'll get it with more practice."
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Liu looked at Mrs. Ye with envy. This was really like being chased by a great god and being fed by him!

Mrs. Ye was so frightened that she didn't dare to move forward. She stretched her neck to take a look and found that the bamboo tube was filled with powdered seasonings.
Mr. Cen signaled Meng Yu to pour the seasoning into a wooden basin, then grabbed handfuls of the seasoning and spread it evenly in every gap made by the knife.
After coating the inside of the pig with seasoning, Mr. Cen asked Shi Lei to hook the pig's chin with an iron hook, hang it up, and then poke the pig's skin evenly with a sharp knife.
"This is so that the fat under the skin can be better forced out when grilling."
