I don't suppose by any chance that Odinists use pigs as sacrificial animals, do they?

What, are you kidding?
From Bulfinch:
Valhalla is the great hall of Odin, wherein he feasts with his
chosen heroes, all those who have fallen bravely in battle, for
all who die a peaceful death are excluded. The flesh of the boar
Schrimnir is served up to them, and is abundant for all. For
although this boar is cooked every morning, he becomes whole
again every night. For drink the heroes are supplied abundantly
with mead from the she-goat Heidrun. When the heroes are not
feasting they amuse themselves with fighting. Every day they
ride out into the court or field and fight until they cut each
other in pieces. This is their pastime; but when meal-time
comes, they recover from their wounds and return to feast in
Valhalla.
Pork, ham, bacon, the other white meat... whatever you want to call it, pigs make good eatin' and are religiously important to Odinists and other Asatuar.
