The pig arrived late, it was supposed to be delivered on the 20th but came on the 21st, I called numerous times but not once got through which was really disappointing and distressing as I needed the pig for an event. Another problem was once the pig did arrived there was no ice, no cooling system and the pig was warm and had a pungent smell which required us having to wash it multiple times to get rid of.

Hello Lawrence, Thank you for your feedback, and after speaking to my team, it's unfortunate that the parcel was delayed whilst in transport, which was out of our control, and I can only apologise for this on behalf of the business. With regards to the parcel not having any Ice protecting the Suckling Pig, I have highlighted this with our Senior Warehouse Management team to investigate for me, as we always ensure that all chilled/frozen products we dispatch have accompanying ice as a basic rule, so this is a first for us not to have ice included In over 15 years of trading. I will message you directly once I have had the feedback from our internal investigations. Kind regards Miles & Team

OMG! We had your suckling pig for lunch yesterday and everyone agreed that is was an incredible feast! Most of my guests had never tasted suckling pig before and were blown away with the flavour and the quality of the roast. The skin turned out crispy, the meat underneath was juicy and cooked to perfection using your recipe online. The 5kg piglet fed 6 people, with many having second helpings but still there were leftovers for me to enjoy today and tomorrow! Although not inexpensive, the price was worth every penny for the outstanding product that we enjoyed. I will definitely be back to buy again as it is a 'Wow!" and so easy to prepare. Thank you!
