How a Master Chef Is Roasting Whole Suckling Pigs in the Middle of NYC — Smoke Point

At NYC’s Peasant, chef Marc Forgione took over from chef Frank DeCarlo after over 20 years, and has kept the idea of wood-fire cooking in NYC alive. The restaurant’s menu includes a whole pig dinner that must be ordered 24 hours in advance of the reservation, as well as wood-fired oysters, Piedmontese steak tartare, and many handmade pastas.

  1. Daym let the pigs live a little. Why eat them at 12lbs when they can offer so much more.

  2. i love food – especially meat but this was really weird and unappetizing, suckling pigs fed on mother's milk and slaughtered between 2 and 6 weeks…. there is definitely something not right here.

  3. my mouth was watering that whole time. There is truly something about cooking with fire. So much flavor.

  4. The skin doesn't look like crispy as Lechon in the Philippines. My fav part is eating the Lechon's cheeks and skin of its face.

  5. I think the ending g really correlates with so many men, when we light a fire or eat a chunk of meat its something internal in us, something primal. Hope to visit this place sometime. Great piece once again

  6. Goddamn Monsters! How can you justify killing a suckling piglet for your appetite!! No wonder Human Beings are such Scumbags.????????

  7. Honestly, I thought that was my aunt in the thumbnail there for a sec.
