Does discussing a porcelet mean that that is one way of introducing oneself. I count two on this thread, amazingly. Does one welcome those who introduce themselves while discussing porcelets or do we wait for............. never mind.
BTW, has anybody cooked one other than the esteemed CandySueQ?
FireMan never a full pig. As far as i know dartagnan dont sell them. I think the poster was referring to either the rib rack or full loin. Ive cooked both and well worth it. I would probably remove the skin on the loin if i did it again

I have roasted suckling piglet (10-15 lb) a couple of times. I found them to look impressive, but was totally underwhelmed with the taste. Tastes very much like whatever you season/spice it with. All the piglet added was texture. Even market hogs are lacking in the maturity and fat to be very flavorful these days. A milk fed suckling piglet has even less flavor! Great looking centerpiece, but as a main course... not so much. Best tasting whole hog I ever did was a 350 lb live weight sow. Maturity and fat = flavor!!!
Hear, hear! Agree 100% with HorseDoctor! Best Hog I ever ate was huge, cooked Cuban cooker style. Seasoned with garlic poked under the skin. Not smoked, roasted and very amazing!
