Pig To Barbicue
The best pig for this purpose is of the thick neck breed, about six
weeks old. Season the barbicue very high with cayenne, black pepper, and
sage, finely sifted; which must be rubbed well into the inside of the
pig. It must then be sewed up and roasted, or, if an oven can be
depended upon, it will be equally good baked. The sauce must be a very
high beef gravy, with an equal quantity of Madeira wine in it. Send the
pig to table whole. Be careful not to put any salt into the pig, as it
will change its colour.
