This is my third whole suckling pig. They arrive expertly packaged, fully frozen. I tend to put it in the freezer ready for the next celebration. Thoroughly defrosting is key to enjoying an an amazing suckling pig. Allow at least 48 hours to fully defrost the piglet, any less and you will still have partially frozen meat. I have cooked it two ways: firstly oven roasted, secondly spit roasted. Both resulted in amazing crispy crackling thay simply melts in the mouth but with an amazing crackle. The milky white meat has a distinctive succulence and flavour unlike any other cut of pork. All my guests, 8 in all that have shared in this taste bud feast have all Sid they can not recall ever having tasted anything so sublime. A true testament indeed.

This was our 4th suckling pig we have had for Christmas dinner. As previously, it was a magnificent centrepiece bursting with the most succulent meat and crispy crackling. I would recommend this way above any bird or beef for a celebratory meal. I have no doubt there will be another on the spit roast soon.

Didn't arrive as the company didn't dispatch on time. Due to be a special Christmas treat, sadly had to go to a local supermarket 2 days before Christmas to buy a frozen turkey!
