WHAT IS SUCKLING PIG? Our Suckling Pigs come from Segovia, the heart of traditional suckling pig production. Unlike many commercially reared pigs, our piglets remain with their mothers for up to 21 days where they are entirely milk fed. This produces meat with the finest texture and flavour, meat of incomparable flavour and succulence with melt-in-the-mouth crackling. Our pigs carry the 'Cochinillo de Segovia' seal of approval which guarantees you’re getting the real deal in terms of origin, birth and breeding method. WHAT CUT IS THE SUCKLING PIG RACK? The rack is the best-end including the loin and ribs, excluding the legs. HOW DO I COOK A SUCKLING PIG RACK? Suckling pig rack can be roasted, grilled or barbecued. To roast place skin side down in a pre-heated oven 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4 for 30mins and then turn so that the rack is skin side up for a further 30mins until the skin is a wonderful, thin crisp. HOW WILL I RECIEVE MY SUCKLING PIG RACK? You will receive one frozen vac pac of suckling pig rack 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 SUCKLING PIG RACK TO SUCKLING PIG RACK, SO EXPECT A SLIGHT VARIATION ON THE THE WEIGHT OF YOUR SUCKLING PIG RACK.

This was my first attempt at cooking this and I was very pleased with the result. My partner is from Segovia, so we are pretty familiar with the dish, and this diy version stood up very well. I will certainly be cooking it again, but will experiment with times and temperatures to get the crunch without compromising the succulence.

This was a complete surprise and absolutely delicious. The flavour is delicate but slightly game-y. The meat was succulent and moist and very tender. It also fer 3 people, no problem. We didn't quite manage the crackling but will try again next time. Definitely recommend this joint.

It was delivered with care but to many rib bones not a lot of meat I thought I was buying a loin

Never tried suckling pig before - thought we'd give it a try as we were really keen to order the Wagu Black Pudding - very nice indeed!

This was absolutely delicious and so easy to cook I followed the recipe on the Basco website . The flavour was superb and plenty for 2 of us, we’ve had this dish in Madrid and San Sebastián so knew what we were getting but this excelled our expectations. Loved it. Thank you Basco
