PHOTO STORY: The World's Largest Matanza
January 27The World’s Largest Matanza is an annual celebration of New Mexican food and culture that takes place in Belen. Matanza translates to “slaughter” in Spanish. At this event, people butcher — or slaughter — a whole hog and roast its cuts over pits with smoking coals or fry them in big cast iron skillets. Live music was provided during the festivities on Saturday, Jan. 25, with live performances from Peter Vigil & the All Star Band and Black Pearl Band. Several booths competed to be voted the one with the best food. Emily Dunham is a freelance photographer for the Daily Lobo. She can be reached at photo@dailylobo.com or on X @dailylobo
