Looks great, I do a 270#(alive) one every year for our town on the 4th of July. I buy it on the 3rd, butcher, scald it, inject it, tie on wire rack and then put it on the block oven about 3:30 am on the 4th and keep at 225 deg. It is 170 deg. clear through by 11:30am Take it off and let it rest for a half hour and then serve. I would sure like to try some of your 20 hr slow cook.

I want to move to your town!!!!!! (At least for the 4th of July)

when I take the pig to butcher I have them split the spine but not cut through the meat I inject it with about a half gallon all over the pig I put it on belly down and I cook slow about 225 for 20 hours when done the cut up part is very easy because the pig falls apart just take the skin off the bones pull out and just serve right off the grill it is very moist and tender and feeds a lot of people
-
also if you cook this way pull the tenderloins out and eat them while your cooking they are the only part of the pig that over cook!
-
Do you raise large black hog?
I've been looking into this breed to raise.
-
I raise Berkshire pigs but I can get you in touch with some large blacks if you would like
-
There is some on CL in my area too, I'm not ready for em yet though.
-
Here is one we did last weekend. 75 lbs cooked for 12 hours.

I'd be interested in seeing some pics of that setup, what did you do for a motor?
-
looks good what did you fill him with

wow, I gotta do the whole hog thing someday... :drool:
-
prices are high but make sure they are wormed and vaccinated casterated if males you can more than make up for the price of the pigs buy getting the best price on feed it takes 800 lbs of grain to finish 1 pig ten cents per lb is eighty dollars per pig
-
Looks great guys.
-
What does it cost to get one butchered and ready to cook as a whole hog
-
I charge for 70-150 lb 3.50 per lb over 150 lbs 3.00 per lb that is ready to go butchered scaled that is done at a USDA shop so it will come inspected
-
looks good jeff.
