Found this Jim. Ong Pin in South SF.http://www.ongpin.com/

Have not tried them so do not know the quality or flavor.

They have the prices on their menu for whole pig.

Wish the guy I normally go to would get back to me because they normally give me a 90lbs pig for the same price Ongpin sells their 60lbs pigs.


Has any of our NCKA peeps that live on the SF side ever tried Ongpins lechon???

Check with ChuckE.  He knows ...

They arent that bad. I will ask another restaurant that does it.

Wish I can attend and help again Jim. But I am not available on that day.

I picked up 2 pigs at Lechon Manila for the Mooch Memorial.

Bring a live one and we can practice for Albion!

Would imagine it beats cleaning and cooking.

Actually they arent hard to cook its just a lot of time.

I helped (mostly watched) Allen (Polepole) clean up after using his China box to cook one.... Lot of work!!! Sure was good though!

you need to be more specific how big 40-60-80 or more lbs are you roasting or reheating lot of good pigs in Turlock as in pig farms
 tons of Chinese / Filipino restaurants will do a pig but will need some time to prepared and may need a few days

roasting can take a full day even more if its a big pig

This is the place ChuckE recommended:

Looks awesome, but also looks like you need to pay in person 3 days before event? What a pain...

Only at the time full payment is made will orders will be deemed confirmed and processed by our kitchen.

Darius, if you have a place close to you (or if this place is close to you??) and would be willing to help out that would be killer!

Not sure on size, or uncut or pre-cut...maybe some of you guys know?
