So a buddy has asked me if I'd cook a whole hog for him for his son's Eagle Scout celebration.
So far I know it's supposed to be sometime in March and he's guessing (right now) between 60-80 people.
I've got a little advice from a buddy who's done many a whole hog. As I understand it, planning on 1 lb (hanging weight) per person due to about a 50% yield.
My challenges:
No cooker that will fit a whole hog in my arsenal. Maybe the concrete block hog cooker? Suggestions?
Never done it, though that honestly doesn't scare me much. Gotta start sometime.
I'm gonna do some interweb searching for prepping tips, etc. Just thought I'd ask you all too.
Thanks in advance for any advice, tips, tricks, etc. that you can offer.
