    "Whole" Hog Problem

    Would you recommend cooking it all on the same side and avoiding a flip? If so, I'm assuming is would want to have the cavity side down and the majority of the meat pointing up.

    "Whole" Hog Problem

    Yeah, new butcher is top on the list. I'm planning to keep the coals on the two ends, nothing directly under the hog. I have two full size drip pans that I'll have some apple juice in and I'm planning to inject with a simple brine and I may mop it with some of the finishing sauce I have already...

    "Whole" Hog Problem

    Well, things just got even more off-script. I called again to confirm that the pig would at least be scalded, scraped, and thawed when I picked it up. The butcher informed me that they didn't scald and scrape there, the pig had been skinned. So, I'm now cooking two skinned halves of a pig...

    "Whole" Hog Problem

    I decided that cooking up a whole hog for the Labor Day weekend would be fun, so I did all sorts of internet research and decided to try the cinder block pit method, which requires a whole hog that has been butterflied so that it will lay flat and cook evenly.

    Help - Is this a liner?

    I've never built a UDS before and I don't know what I'm doing.  Now that we have that out of the way, I ordered an "unlined" drum from a local supplier and when it arrived it had a slight pinkish lining on about 40% of the drum.  I tried burning it and then grinding it out and, while the burning...

    New in Dayton

    After spending a year living in Arkansas, I learned that there is nothing better than good BBQ.  Then, the Air Force sent me to Dayton, OH and I found out that good BBQ isn't readily available everywhere.  So, I determined to take things into my own hands.  Now I'm working on my first UDS and...
