So! I found out the place I'm getting my meats for the 4th can get and deliver a suckling pig! Being the good team member I am at work I figured I should get said pig and bring it in for my group. The butcher is going to charge me next week once the final weight comes in, should be 10---12 pounds and it's at a reasonable price for my area (once this is done I'll drop the butcher for those in area). Now I've cooked bigger whole pigs as an all day thing, but not one of these fuckers. Anybody here has? Any advice? Anyone hasn't but knows how it's done. It seems far less complex and I'm probably A++ level for a home chef. Just fishing for ideas, I don't usually get to play with something like this and it's going to be good fun. Will take pictures and POST!

A lot of that weight is skin & bones. Probably can't feed more than 10 persons with a suckling pig. I imagine the fare will be supplemented by burgers and dogs and more. Just don't expect a suckling pig to provide a lot of meat.

Yeah, you make cracklins with the skin. Delicious stuff if done right.

EDIT - Butcher says my pig arrives Sunday, he is 15 pounds. MysteriousStranger fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Jun 24, 2017 |

I had a VERY sad pork experience this weekend in Baja. The dude was planning on putting a whole pig on a rotisserie and cooking it slow and low. Somehow somebody talked him into doing it on the grill and I don't know what went wrong because I couldn't bite through the meat and it did not taste good. I also don't know how he fit it all on a grill... The upside was that it was a potluck and everything else was awesome. And I didn't get diarrhea. I need you to have a success here.

the work of a bartender is not serving drinks but dealing with drunks, refraining from killing them until they're plausibly off property, and only robbing them a little bit

ok, normally I don't bump poo poo threads, because that's a pet peeve of mine you know what else is a pet peeve of mine? someone posting a thread about doing something that literally has been on my mind as a 'hey, I should do this for my birthday or a thanksgiving or celebration or something, I've always really wanted to really do this, I'd be really interested if someone on the internet posted a thread about it and gave updates about how they did it and maybe pictures' type thing, and then them promising 'hey! I'll post an update and pictures!' and then literally that not ever happening. forums poster 'MysteriousStranger' I don't know or care who you are, by all appearances just a 2016 GBS yifftard, but post goddamn pictures and an update of your sucking pig cooking thing or I promise to god on all that is holy I will GWS permaban honor duel you to cook a loving sucking pig and post an update and pictures of the process, so that I can see said update and pictures or see you banished from this godforsaken forum forever.
