Cooler for a whole hog?
A question for you experienced whole hog folks...
What size cooler will hold a whole butchered 35 - 40 lb pig before cooking? Looking for something to transport the pig from the meat shop to home and then to hold overnight after dry brining. It'll probably be January or February before I need it but wanted to keep an eye out for a used one or a good black Friday sale. Thanks! Last edited by jeffshoaf; 11-02-2023 at 06:02 PM.. |

Friend did pig roasts ever summer. Was busy at work and called me to pick up the pig one time.
Slaughterhouse was a few miles away. Pretty disgusting old place (flies everywhere) that has since been torn down. Backed my brand new '84 Z-28 up to one of the doors and a couple guys plopped a plastic-wrapped 110-120# pig through the back hatch, hooves up. Got sorta funny when on the freeway for the 4-5 mile drive to his exit. People saw the hooves and were honking and giving thumbs up. Drove into friend's backyard. Wrestled the pig into a shed. Packed many small ice bags from his chest freezer under and around it. Didn't hit the fire for another 5-6 hours.
