Ok, big changes. Hog came in over weight.... 40 lbs over. He weighed 90 and 67 dressed. We cut it down to 28" from the snout and put front half on. Started charcoal at 530 am and dome temperature at 830 am is 300 and temp in the shoulder is 131. Are we cooking to fast? It was shoulder temp...
i have some light weight expanded metal already in smoker to lay him on to aid in turning him. Any idea on what dimensions this guy might be? I dont pick him up till Sat and all I know is it was supposed to be 50lb.
Are plan is to get at station at 530, light some charcoal and do the rub. Hopefully have the smoker up to about 300-325 by 6:15. The guys will be flexible on what time we eat. Normally we eat at 530 but they understand. There is only 5 of us stationed here. If it works out we plan to do...
Are station is fairly busy and the pit idea wont be an option while at work. If we cut the head and legs off and reduce it to about a 35lb would that lessen the cook time? Also are you adding already lit coals to the fire or can I just put cold charcoal on fire to keep it going? We were...
What about skin off? Is that going to be a problem? How many hours you think maybe. I think you posted somewhere in another post around 8-10 hours. You think that would still apply? Also how do I add charcoal? Right on top of the fire already burning once the heat drops. Or should I add a...
It looks as if I will have a 50lb for Sunday at the firehouse. The butcher could not really get one much smaller. If it doesnt fit, well not sure what we will do. But anyhow, he said the skin will be off. Do I need to do a rub for skin off? Or just a mop? What kind of smoke temperature...
Thanks thus far. I am going to ask the butcher what size he can get. I think he said around 60lb would be the smallest. How much room around the pig should i allow for proper cooking? I figure a couple inches all the way around, would I be right? Maybe it wont fit in mine?
I cant do a pit because of location. We will be doing this at the firehouse and people driving by may not understand and I was hoping the smoker would take less work, ie it could stay cooking with out needing to be turned or flipped for an hour or so at a time. I saw your cinder block method...
Hi guys, heres the deal. I work at a firehouse and we want to do a hog roast. But were doing it on duty and small scale. I have a Brinkmann Smoke n Pit Professional with a side fire box. Grill surface is about 17"x35". Can it be done? What would be max size pig that would fit? I know its...
