PS Is there any difference in taste between cooking a whole pig and just cooking a pork butt?

with the whole pig you get all the different parts of the pig, the ham the bacon the ribs etc. o like it when they are chopped and mixed together as one

Uh--what time does she go on?????

Skin down based on my "two" and only whole hog cooks! :lol:
"Big bowl" for all the juices and flavor.
Pull the meat out when she is done.

But, what do I know about whole hog cooking

I've never cooked them, but both New Holland and Salisbury contests had Whole Hog categories... In walking around and watching people prep and cook.. Kapn is right.. skin down..

I watched your buddy Jack McDavid cook them skin down as well at both of these contests. He cooked some some farkin big arse, huge hogs.

He just uses salt and pepper... :biggrin:

PS - Kapn - Didn't you, Dave and the Turtles take 2nd place in Whole Hog at Best of the Best in GA last year ? Not too shabby.... I think that qualifies you to call Willie and give him a tutorial...

Uh--Nancee, Greg, Chad, and the "local crew" of "Big Jim and friends" did that!
I just stood back and watched in awe
Damn fine eats though :lol:

It was skin side down both days.

[MilitantSquatter]

What time do you expect her to be finished ?

And at this point, since you are referring to it as "she" - can we give her a name ?

How about Willietta ?????
