    Having shot your wild pig, hold it well away from you as you carry it home; these feral sus are exceedingly verminous and the ticks are said to be not entirely host-specific. Hang up by the feet with a piece of
    wire, soak in a 50-50 mix of gasoline and diesel oil and set on fire. This treatment both removes most of the wiry hair and kills the ticks.

    When the smoke has cleared away, take the pig down, gut it, and cut off the tail. Send the tail to
    the local wildlife co-op who, if you are in the right area, will give you up to $5 for it. Bury the carcass, preferably in a light sandy soil, and leave it there for a fortnight. This is said to improve the flavor by removing, in part at least, the taste of musk and ass.

    Dig up and skin the pig. Place in a strong salt and water solution and soak for 48 hours. Remove, pat dry, and stuff with whole, unpeeled onions: the onion skins are supposed to bleach the meat to a small extent, so that it is very dark brown instead of being entirely black.

    Simmer gently in seawater, to which two tablespoons of chloride of lime have been added, for six hours. This has a further tenderizing effect. Take out of the water and allow to dry, meanwhile mixing up a stiff paste of methylated spirit and dry rub. Spread this mixture liberally over the body of the pig.

    Finally roast in a very hot oven for three hours. The result is unbelievable! Wrap securely in three layers of heavy-duty trash bag, and dispose of at a hazardous waste facility. Not even a starving vulture would eat it.
