My grandson is 10 turning 11. He said, "All I want for my birthday is for you to cook me a whole pig." He wants to eat the jowls.
I've never cooked a whole hog before, but I'm picking up a 4o pounder tomorrow and having about 36 people on Sunday. I've rented a big charcoal cooker (trailer) with a lid and a rotisserie. The meat packing plant has it ready to cook and they even injected some seasoning in it.
I need to know how long it will take to cook. People will expect to eat around 3:00 or 4:00 on Sunday. When do I put this little piggy on the spit? I'll sure appreciate any advice as I'm flying blind here. I've put aside enough money for a bunch of pizzas.
