QUEENSLAND
There’s nothing more impressive than a spit roast taking centre stage at a large gathering. The smell of the succulent roast pork mixed with the charcoal and smoke is enough to make anyone’s mouth water!
We offer spit pigs when they’re available. We can send our spit pigs to Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Bundaberg, Rockhampton, Gympie and the South Burnett.
Let us know if you have a local butcher that you would like your pig sent to – the pig must be delivered to an accredited butcher that already accepts deliveries from Biggenden Meatworks.
Your spit pig will be processed the week before your collection date. We do not freeze our spit pigs.
The following is a guide only and is based on a serving size of around 300 to 350 grams of pork per person.
A whole dressed spit pig will usually yield around 60% of it’s weight in cooked pork. So, for example, a pig of 25kg will yield around 15kg of cooked pork. If you serve 330g of pork per person you could feed up to 45 people, but just make sure you do have enough to go round!
Spit pigs are priced per kilo for the whole dressed pig depending on the size. This is a flat rate per kilo, which includes processing, transport and handling. This price does not include stuffing or trussing, but this is easy (and fun) to do yourself.
At the time of ordering we take a $150 deposit to secure your pig. Once the pig has been processed we will send an invoice to your nominated email address with the balance owing. The balance must be paid prior to collecting your pig.
We DO NOT sell live spit pigs. All spit pigs will be processed through our abattoir and sent to an accredited retail butcher for collection. No acceptions.
Your pig will be raw. We do not offer cooking or catering services. You will need to arrange your own spit hire or catering company to cook your pig for you.

Were you looking for a whole pig or perhaps some free range pork? Visit our farm shop.
Yanjala is a small-scale free range pig farm near Murgon, an hour inland from Gympie, Queensland (Australia), producing succulent free range pork.
We keep a very small herd of only 15 sows and 3 boars, which are all Wessex Saddlebacks. All of our pigs are born, raised and lovingly cared for right here on our farm.
We believe in ethical farming methods, producing high quality true free range pork that is good for our bodies, good for the animals and good for our land.
Our beautiful pigs are completely free range; living outdoors, in the fresh air, on open pastures. They have the freedom to do what they love to do… run, dig, forage, wallow and most of all, socialise!
We have chosen to grow Wessex Saddleback pigs for our pork. Wessex Saddlebacks are heritage breed pigs, ideally suited for living in the outdoors and make wonderful paddock foragers.
We do not claim to be organic, however our pigs never receive additives, chemicals, hormones or antibiotics. Just real… natural… slow grown pork.
Wessex Saddleback pork is much darker in colour than your usual supermarket pork. The texture is completely different, it’s extremely moist and melts in the mouth. It’s sweet and full of flavour, with a wonderful marbling of fat that produces incredibly juicy succulent pork.
