Question Suckling pig

Ok, with all this talk going around about whole hogs etc, I think I wanna try my luck with a suckling pig, I know a place here local where I can get one, anything special I should know before starting this? Should I have them prepare it a certain way? What kind of temps do you run it up to? Any tips as to how to not ruin the loins in the process? Was considering injecting with ice water or similar on the loins to slow the cook down some. Any and all advice is appreciated.

John

recently did a 60 lb. pig. Splayed it open, and rubbed the whole thing down with a good rub. Layed it flat over indirect coals for about four hours, turning once at the last half hour. Came out excellant.

Sorry guy, I got nothing on whole piggies. Maybe when I finally get a job I will buy a la caja china and start doing them.

We have several whole hog cookers here, but not many!

May take them a bit to find this and respond.

Still learning this whole patience thing, between the 6 month old and the smoker it has been a crash course though!

The shoulder is what you want to watch that takes the longest to cook. Never done that small of one or done one that was laid flat, always rotated (keeps juices running inside)
