Roasting a pig this Sat and another one on Sept 20. My neighbors and I made roasters out of old 55 gal drums. Welded supports across the barrels that an aluminum pan sits on. The pig can't be too big about 125 to 150 lbs live weight. I have the hide and head taken off and wrap the pig in foil. I've stuffed the pig with bread stuffing but am going to stuff it this year with potatoes, celery, carrots and cabbage. It takes about 40lbs of charcoal for this set up. The nice thing is once you close the lid you don't have to mess with it at all and 12 hours later it's ready to eat. This will be the 14th time my neighbors and I have had a pig roast. No knives needed just thick rubber gloves to pull the pig apart. I also make a spicey bbq sauce for people to put on, tastes great!

That might be my favorite sentence ever. Glad this thread got bumped or I'd never have seen it.

Ever try this with a bedsheet instead of a burlap sack?

No, never tried that... The burlap usually comes out completely charred but because it's heavy and thick,.it tends to still keep its shape and hold everything together. I think a bed sheet would just burn right off.

Oh I'm suuuuuure you're invited PTN. The pig roast is always the second weekend in November. Honest. You just sit by the phone and I'll call you with directions around November first. It'll be fun. I know I can't wait!
