Title: Our daughter's rehearsal dinner
Post by: Bob Smith on April 28, 2012, 07:13:39 pm
We cooked a 43lbs pig for Tiffany and Beau's rehearsal dinner. It took about 5 hours and a lot of wondering how it was going to turn out. Thanks goes to Tracey for keeping me from pulling out my hair, and for helping with everything.

Bob, your a braver man than I. To cook a whole hog is a dream of mine but not sure that I will ever get the nerve to cook one. Wait, I know have you I can look to for help when the day come. I'm sure it was, yes, was because as good as it looks I'm sure all if it was eaten. Congrats on good job.

Don't hesitate to cook one, it's really not very hard and there's tons of info out there. I've done it and it was a blast! I did get some advice from a guy who's won a few whole hog comps and will use it next time I do one.

Very cool photos, always wanted to try full pig...  La Cja China box I presume!?!  Did you use the smoker generator attachment??

Thanks all, I didn't use a smoke generator, just a simple roasting. I think I'm really liking the La Caja China. Smoke generator is next add on for it. I will be doing another pig. Hope the next one will be fresh not frozen, don't like having to thaw it out the day before :'(. But I will say McReynolds did make it right on the price.
