Product Description

  • A young pig's flesh is rich in collagen and has yet to develop strong muscle fibers, so a roasted suckling pig is very moist, tender and delicate. It's bursting with sweet, sticky juices. Pigs under about 40 pounds yield the most tender meat.
  • To cook a whole pig perfectly, use a relatively low, indirect heat to slowly cook the roast completely without burning the skin. For a 35-pound pig, a rotisserie is an ideal method. For additional flavor, marinate the pig in a brine solution with herbs, spices and/or fruits.
  • Suckling pig is easy to roast. First, salt and pepper the pig. Wrap the ears with aluminum foil to prevent them from burning. Cook the pig to at least 160 degrees Fahrenheit in the shoulder joint close to the head.
  • The pig is frozen.
  • There is one, 35-pound-average pig per case.
  • No hormones added: Federal regulations prohibit the use of hormones in the raising and production of pork or poultry.
