Everyone loves this. I use a 9x13 pan but never change anything else about the recipe. It is light, cool and fruity -- perect to end a rich meal and even better when made early the day you will serve it or even the day before.

I have a confession to make. My sister and I loved this cake soooo much that we vowed the recipe would be "our" little secret. Well, I guess the secret is out. This is by far my most favorite cake recipe. I am always asked to make it at various gatherings.

I usually make this in a 9X13 pan. This cake tastes better the longer it sits in the refrigerator.

This is a wonderful recipe. Being from the TN mountains, I bring this to all community/neighborhood functions. Just a bit of history about the name, "pig pickin" is pulled barbeque pork here in Appalachia. This light and fluffy cake is excellent after a heavy meal of pulled BBQ pork or ribs.

Very good and pretty cake. My advice is to make it the day before because it tastes even better the next day. Also I used a cheap (store brand) cake mix and I think it would of been moister with a Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines.

I grew up in the south, and my great aunt was known for her pig pickin' cake...and I've never found a recipe as good as hers...until now! After trying it exactly as written, the 2nd time I made it I changed the recipe slightly to 1/2 cup oil and I also added fresh strawberries between the layers & on top. (I only made it a 2 layer cake) I received rave reviews! Cake was extremely moist! My husband, who isn't a very big fan of sweets & desserts had 3 slices! Thank you!

I added chopped walnuts to the cake mix and only made 2 layers of cake. Everyone just raved about it. It is the best cake I have ever made.

This. Is. So. Good. My recipe calls for 1/3 cup of water, 1/3 cup vegetable oil and three large eggs (instead of four eggs and just oil) to be mixed in with the yellow cake mix. I make it in three cake pans, and frost in between the layers and on top I sprinkle pecans. It is SO pretty and ridiculously easy.

I'd give this a 10 if I could! Been making this recipe for about 3 yrs. now. Made one for my neighbor Ed & he said I could sell these & make a fortune--- best cake he's ever had. Our family's favorite & sooo easy. I do make it in a 9x13 pan though.

Teri, I haven't made this yet but, I want to thank you for posting it. My mother used to make this cake for our family when I was a little girl and I never got the recipe. It was a family favorite. Thank you again.

This was very easy to make and tasted good too! It's a great summer cake - very cool and refreshing. I couldn't really tell if the folks who ate it liked it or not though. No one really said anything and no one went back for seconds.
