Alabama boy, 11, kills giant pig
30 MAY 2007
Using a gun, an 11-year old boy from the American state of Alabama has killed what is possibly the biggest pig mankind has ever seen.

It took brave Jamison Stone about three hours to kill the boar, according to Fox News. The youngster spotted the animal during a hunting trip together with his dad and two guides, in the eastern part of Alabama.Altogether he needed eight shots, before being able to kill the pig, weighing 477 kilogrammes and measuring 3 metres, according to Jamison's dad Mike.'Hogzilla'Should these data prove to be correct, than Jamison's pig is bigger than good old Hogzilla, found in Georgia, three years ago. This animal weighed 400 kilogrammes and was 'only' 2.5 metres long.Mike Stone said he would like to make sausages of the pig – it is estimated that this could be about 250 to 350 kilogramme of sausage.Meanwhile, a special website has been created about the unusual catch: http://www.monsterpig.com./.

BUFFALO GRILL WON'T YA COME OUT TONIGHT

Laurie's Cooking Tip:"Low and Slow is the Way to Go!"
Buffalo meat is lower in fat than beef; therefore, it cooks faster than beef and can become dry if over cooked. That's why it's important to always remember "Low and slow is the way to go!" As a general rule, buffalo should be cooked about 50 degrees lower than beef, but for the same amount of time. Also, buffalo meat is best when cooked from rare to medium. Never cook directly in a flame. The Buffalo Guys Buffalo Meat can be substituted in ANY recipe that calls for beef. You'll love cooking with our buffalo meat and you'll love the taste!
Happy Cooking!

These mini-pigs are sold in pairs where possible so they have company at night.British TV presenter, Jonathon Ross, is reported to have purchased two of the pigs for US $300.Murray emphasised the importance of keeping these pigs fit and not fat like all other pets.
