Interesting. It's an uncommon technical term from the pork industry designating a grade or size of pork carcass.
But, depending on where you encountered it, it's much more likely a mistaken substitution for the very common political term "pork barrel," as in "pork barrel legislation," designating legislation that gives government money to a special interest group in return for political favors. (See the Wikipedia article for more.) |

You mean ' Pork Barrel' ! Duh !
"Pork barrel, in a literal sense, is a barrel in which pork is kept, but figuratively is a supply of money that is provided to various supplicants who ask for it.
In politics, a pork barrel (or pork barrel politics) is a derogatory term describing government spending that is intended to benefit constituents of a politician in return for their political support, either in the form of campaign contributions or votes. The term is thought to have originated on Southern plantations, where slaves were allocated the unwanted remainder of slaughtered pigs, or the "pork barrel". Typically it involves funding for government programs whose economic or service benefits are concentrated in a particular area but whose costs are spread among all taxpayers. Public works projects and agricultural subsidies are the most commonly cited examples, but they do not exhaust the possibilities. Pork barrel spending is often allocated through last-minute additions to appropriation bills. |

That is a device with a single wheel in front and handles in the back. You place the hog in the middle and lift on the handles. |

Do you mean Pork Barrel?
If so, that is a political term that means government spending will mostly benefit the congressman/senator or their constituents, but it will be funded by all taxpayers. |

It's a piece of equipment made from the hide of a large pig. You shape the hide into a bowl shape, add a wheel to the bottom and two handles to push it around. You can use it for picking up leaves in your yard. |
