Roasted Pig

Marinade Preparation Prepare the marinade by combining soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, minced garlic, black pepper, and salt in a bowl. Mix well.

Marinating the Pig Place the whole pig in a large container or ziploc bag and pour the marinade over it. Make sure the pig is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Oven Preheating Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Stuffing Preparation In a separate bowl, prepare the stuffing by mixing together chopped onions, minced garlic, bread crumbs, melted butter, dried thyme, dried rosemary, dried sage, salt, and black pepper.

Stuffing the Pig Remove the pig from the marinade and discard the marinade. Stuff the pig with the prepared stuffing mixture. Use kitchen twine to secure the pig.

Roasting Setup Place the stuffed pig on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Pour water into the bottom of the pan to create steam during roasting.

Basting Sauce Preparation In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, pineapple juice, ketchup, hoisin sauce, honey, and vegetable oil. Heat over low heat until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce is well combined.

Roasting the Pig Roast the pig in the preheated oven for 4-5 hours, basting with the prepared sauce every 30 minutes. The pig is done when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is crispy and golden brown.
