One tip on how to cook a whole pig that is delicious is to infuse your roast with more flavor by marinating and/or brining the pig before cooking. However, because of the size of these roasts, much of the marinade or brine may not reach the depths of the meat.
You should suspect tetanus if a cut or wound is followed by one or more of these symptoms: 1  Stiffness of the neck, jaw, and other muscles, often accompanied by a grotesque, grinning expression. 2  Difficulty swallowing. 3  Irritability. 4  Uncontrollable spasms of the jaw, called lockjaw, and neck muscles.
In local tetanus, the symptoms are restricted to areas around the site of infection. Generalized tetanus is more common, however, and produces symptoms throughout the entire body (Cook 2001). Generalized tetanus usually presents with rigidity and spasms in the head and neck area, and then progresses down the entire body.
