Default Where to buy pig for rotisserie in south bay?

So it seems that the "Stephen's Meats" place over by the Shark Tank's closed. Does anyone have any recommendations for places to order a whole pig for rotisserie?

Maybe try Los Gatos Meats Smokehouse. Not sure if they normally do that, but they do darn near everything else and ought to be able to order you one!

Sent them an email about it this morning before I headed out to work. Used to get lunch from them time to time when I was working in Los Gatos, damn good eats!

You don't need to go that far. They are all over the hills around San Jose.

Haven't heard back from Los Gatos, but Willow Glen got back to me this evening with this response:

We sell whole Pigs. Due to the swine virus its a week or so lead time getting them.
cost
20 to 29 lbs are $285.00 each

30 to 39 lbs are $298.00 each

40 to 49 lbs are $315.00 each

50 to 59 lbs are $330.00 each
To those of you asking, I would absolutely love to go wild pig hunting, been talking with my father about it for a few months. I think if we weren't going turkey hunting next week in South Dakota we'd probably try for boar around here. That being said, for this event I'd rather just cut to the chase and source a pig already prepped for cooking.

Might be the best (?).... I recommend you call and ask about cooking
a whole pig..... then you can really 'cut to the chase'.

Just as a (very late) follow up for this, ended up going to Los Gatos Meats for the pig. Got a ~60lb pig, forget the actual price as it's been a few weeks.
