No easy weekend here.... We are doing a Hawaiian-ish style pig roast. Dug a 6ft x 3ft, 4ft deep hole last night. Put a layer of river stones in the bottom of the hole about a foot high.
Starting a fire in a half hour and burning the crap out of it until 11pm. Will let the fire die down until midnite and throw a crap ton of cabbage leaves into the hole. Next, in goes the 225lb pig (after a dirty marinade, dry and wet) on chicken wire to lift in and out easily. Add some onions and apples to stomach and surrounding the pig and the rest of the cabbage leaves on top. Cover the hole with a sheet of wood and shovel dirt around the edges until no more smoke is visible. The chosen one will stay in the hole until 4:30 or 5pm on saturday and then be pulled and laid next to the pot luck offerings. This is our 5th such pig roast in about 10 years and always turns out great. I am planning on taking some photos as the weekend progresses, but if i know myself i will crack way to many beers and forget :doh:
Hope y'all have a great and safe weekend.
