I was just given a whole pig. It is cleaned, dressed, head removed, and in a large ice chest covered with ice. What now?????

Big pit, cajun microwave or quarter him up and throw it on a smaller pit. I like to make my own baste using oil, vinegar and seasonings; just mix what ever you like. We can be there this weekend :icon_wink:
Go back and get the head for Dirty so he can make him some head cheese

never heard any bad words about them.....but too expensive for a NELA guy like me...my brinkman is all I need.....and reliable......whole hogs are better when friends cook it.
The first thing I saw after clicking on that link was LSU. So now you have heard the first bad words about them.
I agree - the brinkman is the best, but this thing won't fit in there like it is. I have almost decided I'm going to have to cut it at least in half. I was thinking of using Mrs.Chipdog's method for cooking brisket's in the oven for part of it: large pan, bottle of liquid smoke, equal amount of worchestershire sauce, cut up onions, cut up garlic, cover with foil, 230 degrees for 8 hours. Will that work? She is no help at all because apparently this is a real animal whereas I guess sausage and bacon somehow are not.
Put some Shake n Bake on it, throw it in the oven.
OMG I wish somebody would give me a whole pig! We'd be roasting that baby on the hill by the TAC tomorrow night!!
