I have a couple buddies who run a weekend business doing pig roast catering.  When they get booked up, they give me a call for help.  This started as a 52 lbs carcass.  Roasted it for a birthday party.  I apologize for the picture quality, all I had was my cell phone.

1 hour on the spit..

6 hours on the spit and ready to be pulled

Nice, looks like fun.  Welcome to SMF JimV!  Pretty soon you will have learned enough from the members here that your catering buddies won't call for extra help but advice!!

That's a nice lookin' piggy!!  I agree with the others, there is nothing like a whole hog.  We do them in a cooker....and nothing beats walking up to the cooker after a day of being teased by the smells coming from that thing and pulling off a big ole chunk of meat!!
