WHAT IS OUR BONELESS SUCKLING PIG? When it comes to roasting joints, there is no finer meat in the world than the traditional Spanish Cochinillo. The soft and tender meat literally melts in the mouth as the flavours dance around your tongue, delighting your senses with every forkful of this incredible delicacy. Unlike many of the commercially reared animals that you will find elsewhere, our suckling pigs are always kept with their mothers. This is the only farming method that stays true to the traditional practices from which the name suckling pig was derived. Keeping things natural also delivers meat with the finest flavour and texture, not to mention the crispiest crackling you've ever tasted, so you can serve a truly banquet worthy dish in the comfort of your own home. Thankfully, however, you do not need to be a master chef to create a dish to die for when you use one of our prime piglet's. Each one will arrive at your door pre-prepared: boned, tied and oven-ready, allowing you to relax and look forward to the feast ahead. So, why not take advantage of our excellent suckling pig prices and buy one of our extra special suckling pigs yourself. HOW DO I COOK MY BONELESS SUCKLING PIG? Whether you choose to roast yours traditionally (Cochinillo asado) or cook one on the barbecue for friends and family, the results will remain the same - fantastically flavoursome. HOW WILL I RECIEVE MY BONELESS SUCKLING PIG? You will receive one frozen vac pac of boneless suckling pig delivered on ice pads. If you are not using the suckling pig straight away, store in the freezer. If you are, then you will need to thaw it in the fridge for at least 24 hours before cooking. PLEASE NOTE THAT WEIGHTS CAN VARY FROM BONELESS SUCKLING PIG TO BONELESS SUCKLING PIG, SO EXPECT A SLIGHT VARIATION ON THE THE WEIGHT OF YOUR BONELESS SUCKLING PIG.

The most tender piece of pork we have ever eaten and it's so easy to get a crispy crackling.

This was the second little piggy wiggy I have had from you - a slight twinge of guilt from my guests when they see this wrinkled baby in the flesh ….. but oh when it’s cooked ! - I have to fend them of with a sticky stick whilst it rests. Bloody delicious!

I was really looking forward to this joint as Greek I am well experienced with all young meats whenever I can find. I found this sucking-pig joint under-whelming. I followed the cooking instructions as well as a thermometer to validate and whilst the cracking was great (removed when cooked and crisped up on a wire rack whilst resting) the meat itself was tough. As it was rolled the fat on the inside had not rendered and was inedible. The cooking time of 1hr40min seemed about right for the weight as a joint however if I was to buy again to give it another go I would remove the string and cook it flat with fat side up on the veg along with some seasoning. The service from Basco was 5* even though had missing items from the delivery which were resolved very swiftly.

I have gone through your feedback with our Executive Chef and we have scheduled a tasting session within our kitchens to test the quality of this ordinarily highly admired product. I will personally phone you on our findings and again I'm grateful for you taking the time to write your review. Kind regards Miles
