Sainsbury's is selling a nine-inch pig in blanket filled with Christmas trimmings

There's nothing better than a show-stopping centrepiece to dazzle dinner guests at Christmas.

If you're looking for something a bit different, Sainsbury's has launched a new meaty feast for the festive season.

The store is selling a nine-inch pork "Christmas Cracker", which is essentially a giant pig in a blanket.

The centrepiece is made from multiple sections of cured gammon, sweet chestnut stuffing, black pudding and pork fillet.

This is wrapped up in succulent streaky bacon, making for a pretty impressive dish.

Part of the store's range of Christmas food, the show-stopper costs £8.

The by Sainsbury’s Christmas Cracker has been described by the supermarket as a decadent, melt-in-the-mouth twist on a Christmas stuffing staple.

It’s also easy to cook, only needing seasoning on the surface and to be placed in the oven to sizzle.

The Christmas Cracker launches as part of Sainsbury’s full range of Christmas food and drink.

Other meat treats include Taste the Difference Salted Apple Caramel Unsmoked Gammon, Taste the Difference Pork and the Sage & Onion Stuffing Wreath.

Customers can also get the Taste the Difference British Beef Topside Joint with Cracked Black Pepper & Sea Salt, Wrapped in Bacon.

The "Christmas Cracker" is available in Sainsbury's stores and online now.
