“Fantastic as always! 3rd one we have had from Basco. Forgot to select faster delivery so phoned up and the gentleman that answered sorted straight away so got in time to defrost for my wife's 50th birthday party. Everyone loved it. Great light crackling, moist tender meat. Easy to cook. Makes a special occasion special.”

“This suckling pig was like being fed by the good lord himself.. I cooked for 4 hours on a rotisserie and it came out soft with a lovely crackling and full of flavour. I ordered on the Friday and it arrived on the Saturday, ready and fully defrosted for Sunday cooking. You might take an extra day to brine / dry rub but this was pretty good.”

“Arrived perfectly prepared and oven ready (after defrosting of course). I spit-roasted the pig in an outdoor clay oven, following the cooking time and temperature from the website. The result was beautifully tender, juicy and tasty pork, and perfectly crisp crackling. Very impressive. Everyone should try this at least once!”
