I wanted to share some photos of our July 1st pig roast. The pig was 75 lbs and fed 50 guests. I was able to build the spit for 100.00. I had a buddy purchase the pig from Farmer George in Port Orchard (great guys, this is the second one we have purchased from them). I kept the temp at 225 - 265 for the duration of the roast, used a homemade dry rub and stuffed the belly full of pineapple and apples. I used Broadleaf Maple and Applewood for the smoke. It turned out awesome!

Not exactly the response you were looking for but good looking airedale! Don't see too many them. Im on my 4th one.
Good looking pork too!

Roasting Pigs is a lot of fun , Looks like the pig turned out great too.

Did you rotate constantly, or just turn it every now and then? Looks like a good set up! Good looking Airedale, my Dad used to have one.

Wow, that looks awesome!!!!!!

I rotated the pig 180 ° every 30 mins. I never rotate the pig a whole 360. I try to keep the juice from the fruit in the cavity of the pig. Also the thickest part of the meat is higher on the back. I have not had an issue with cooking it completely either so I see no point in changing my process.
Ella is a great dog. This is my first airedale, but I will have many more in the future.
