    Here's a picture of the plywood sheet that we screwed handles into.  We drilled a hole into the center and put an oven thermometer to keep track of the pit temp.  We've an hour left on smoking!

    Whole Hog in SoCal (Q-View)

    Mop sauce is a basic recipe we found from an old cookbook.  Vinegar, salt, black pepper, red peppers (reduced last night), a little bit of sugar, and juice from two lemons. The pig fully dressed was 80 LBs. I'll have more pictures to come as we do the pickin' and serving.

    We're gonna take an IT at 11:15.  Ideally, we'd like to get the IT to 190-200.  The closer to 200, the better.  It'll be an easier pull that way.
