I have used handcuffs a lot and they work good on big hogs, just DO NOT over tighten them and ONLY use smith and wesson cuffs, NOTHING BUT SMITH AND WESSON. Cheaper cuffs will clog w/ dirt and I have seen some break. I have used the smith cuffs in mud, sand and salt water and have had no problems from them.
When I tie a hog I am sitting on it holding it by the bottom front leg (some folks hod the top leg). I double my rope over and pull it back through itself making a slip loop. put that on the bottom front leg. pull your back bottom leg ontop of the first and tie a granny not, then wrap the tag ends around again and tie another not, then go to the top front leg repeat and then the top back leg. Make sure you double tie all three legs. I just use regulare nylon rope, small enough it ties good but not to small or it might cut into the pigs legs if left there long.
