What are you cooking it on? Or how? You can cover the skin side with foil depending on how you plan on smoking it.

Here's a thread about my first whole pig & here's where I got a lot of good info from. Here's another thread with some info. And Cowgirl's blog is a treasure trove. Foiling will help with color - I just kinda laid it across and pushed it around the part that was nearest the firebox - and kept the ears and snout foiled the whole time.

Here is my thread. Each time I did it it looked better. I would rub the skin with olive oil, rub it with a paprika based rub on the skin, and foil for most of the cook for the most even color. Send over pron when you are done. Good luck.
