Pig of the Month Review {and a HUGE Giveaway!}

· 503 Comments

Imagine a dream in which BBQ got delivered to your door, all packaged perfectly, all sauced and ready with heating and pairing instructions…the day before you were going to have a tailgate party…now image that in this dream you’re eating this BBQ and it is some of the BEST BBQ YOU’VE EVER HAD…IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE!

My friends, that dream became a reality when I experienced delicious BBQ from Pig of the Month (a company that delivers perfectly smoked barbecue ribs, award winning pulled pork, specialty sausages, gourmet bacon, and lip-smacking Award Winning BBQ sauces right to your door!)

Pig of the Month BBQ Review this image

So a little side story…when I lived in North Carolina (where I first had yummy BBQ) I was telling one of my girlfriends I was going to a ‘meet-up’ for a book club, she heard ‘meat-up’ and thought I was going to some fun meat exchange. Sadly, there was no meat exchanged and forever after we laugh about ‘meat up.’ With Pig of the Month, you can have a ‘meat up’ … which is exactly what I did for a tailgate party.

Pig of the Month BBQ ReviewAnd guess what, everyone LOVED it (surprising, I know, lol). The ribs were perfectly seasoned and sauced, the pulled pork and chicken were juicy, the brisket was out of this world, the bacon…omg, the BACON, it was the best bacon I’ve ever had, and the sausage…the duck, pear and port sausage was out of this world, and the BBQ sauce was the perfect way to finish bite after bite.

Pig of the Month GiveawayOne party guest said ‘this is the perfect tailgate food, it’s the food you want to eat, but not prepare.’ Which is so true…why go to all the work to get great BBQ when Pig of the Month can do it for you?

    I would LOVE to win this and take a break from cooking. My wife and I are chefs and ALWAYS have to cook the tailgate goodies from potato salads to ribs to cobblers. We would welcome a well deserved break to enjoy the gridiron action!!! 🙂

    You are seriously talking to me, tailgating is a mandatory around here.. We probably do more standard things, burgers, brats, but we do throw some sweet ribs and wings at times. Thank you for the opportunity.

    The spread looks simply marvelous! Tailgating is such fun, but I seldom have the time to spend doing all that preparation. This would be great!

    our fave for tailgating is hamburgers since everyone likes them and they can dress them as they choose but when we’re at home it’s definitely baby back ribs

    I first heard about Pig of the Month on Good Morning America. I ordered from them for Father’s Day and my Dad loved their BBQ. He isn’t a pushover in that department. Now for any special occasion, I order from Pig of the Month for my Dad. He definitely doesn’t need another t-shirt or sweater, but some good ribs – he’s all smiles.

    My idea of the perfect tailgate is a mound of your pulled pork on a steaming hot tortilla with some pico de gallo on the side. Along with that a slab of your Texas Ribs and life is perfect! Who cares which team wins as long as I have POTM, I am the winner!

    It’s been so long since I’ve had BBQ Ribs that are so tender and the meat just falls off the bone. Smoked to perfection with a wonderful BBQ sauce…oh my gosh, I gotta have some!

    Perfectly smoked, fall off the bone tender ribs. Unfortunately I fail at making them every time! But that Duck sausage you mentioned sounds like a close second for new favorite!

    I would have NC style pulled pork bbq sandwiches — pulled pork in a vinegar sauce with some cole slaw on top of it on a bun.

    I’d like to tailgate with Medium Hot Italian Sausage and then saute up some peppers and onions all on a really good roll with ketchup. Yummy. Where’s the game?

    I like preparing ribs in the oven at home and wrapping them in foil to bring to the game. when you’re ready, unwrap and hear on the grill and add those char-lines!

    OMG, I love tailgating with Bratwurst, hot dogs and burgers! Wow, prize fiesta is fab. & splendid. 2 fingers snap. It is tight, fly & off the chain. Thank you for the awesomeness, the contest, and generosity. Dear Santa: I’ve been nice. My X-Mas wish this year is to win this contest. . Starving artist here desperately needs the fiesta to eat again.

    Brats,onion and peppers grilled then put into a bath of half beer half pineapple juice ! Saurkraut grilled with a little buter and apple juice on the side for those who dont like it. Cheese curds and chips for sides.Some nice crusty brat rolls! Can all be done ahead of time and just warmed up on the grill!

    I’m a simple pulled pork for a tailgate kinda gal, though in SC, my friends always make fantastic brisket!

    Everything on the tailgating package would be consumed fast by our family. They probably would eat the chicken wings first. Delicious bundle.

    Pork or just bbq is the best you can find and is even better with some added help and ingredients to add to the pleasure of making it.

    My fiancé loves to put on a lot of Pork Ribs,1/2 Chickens, and several Brats!! He is always grilling with lots of different flavors of delicious BBQ Sauce. And I love to put on a huge batch of Hobo’s to go with it!! There’s nothing like getting a lot of family and friends together for a great BBQ!! 🙂

    My fave meat for a tailgate party is ribs. I have also had brisket, burgers, and hot dogs too. I am ready to sit down and relax and let Pig of the Month cook for one of my tailgate parties. By looking at this review….they do it better than me!

    With five sons and a husband we all know how to chow down on the meat – this seems like the best way to fill everyone up and hit all the right taste notes. Yum!

    It’s so hard to pick one favorite, but I love BBQ pulled pork (or chicken). Another favorite is Italian sausage on the grill with grilled onions and green peppers!

    Ooooo…I think BBQ chicken wings or pulled pork are definitely some of my favorite tailgating foods. Although, I am also particular to sausage. So, basically I like it all!
