Do I simply butcher the pig myself? Do I have a professional butcher do it? What does the butcher receive in return? I was just thinking about this, and I have no idea how the transactions would be handled in many places.
The region and period are just to get a general idea, it doesn't necessarily have to be ultra-specific to that.
The chances are very strong that you'd simply butcher the pig yourself - every step of the pig's life, from piglet to sausage, would have been with the same people. Pigs would have generally been killed in late autumn - as indeed would most large animals - with only breeding stock kept over the winter months, to cut down on the amount of winter fodder needed. It is possible that this was a communal activity - that pigs (which would often have been running half-wild through the summer and earlier autumn) were rounded up, slaughtered and butchered by a whole village - but there still would not have been professional butchers working there.
In archaeological terms, this can be seen in many places from the ways in which remnant bones are cut - they're clearly amateur work, as compared to the expert work done by butchers on larger estates or in monasteries. Even those, however, wouldn't have engaged in commercial transactions as such.
