    Any opinion on this idea?

    Don't use a slow cooker or crock pot. Just smoke it first, then stick it ine the oven at 250* until done. Works fine that way, just a bit less smokey.

    Smoking a suckling pig

    Sounds intersting. I think that sewing it together makes it cook a bit slower most times, but I've never done that so I can't say for sure. It makes sense anyway, there is less surface area for heat to contact. Good luck on the pig and the marriage.

    Smoking a suckling pig

    Probably 6 to 12 hours, but it varies. Will you be cooking split up the middle, or sewn back together? If it was 40 lbs live wt, it will probably be between 25 and 30 lbs with head. If head off maybe as little as 20. Not much meat there. Be careful not to overcook it, small pigs tend to be...

    Interesting past weekend

    Wow, that is insanely stupid. Can we nominate them for almost winning the darwin award. Idiots like this are why people want to ban guns.

    Apologies

    Oops, yep, now I see. GOSM... Ignore my previous comment, I assumed you were using an offset of some type.

    Apologies

    Old grills work great. Metal buckets work great, or just a sandy pit works ok.

    Hmmm, fatty hamburgers. Sounds pretty good on a bun.

    Big Green Egg

    Ceramics are pretty easy once you get the hang of it. They are expensive, and I never would have bought one if I didn't find it cheap used. Compared to electric/gas, maybe slightly harder, but much easier than an offset. Biggest problem is size, they don't hold much meat. Ceramics don't...

    Give Me Your Fatties!!! Please!

    Start with just a roll of 1lb regular ground sausage (hot or mild), and just throw it on there. Personally, I'm pretty lazy, so I almost never stuff mine at all, just throw em on there as they come out of the package. The stuffed are better, but I'm just lazy, and they taste great plain.

    1st attempt at q-vue

    Eh, no problem, it still looks good. Besides, at least the pics were not too wide for the screen, that one is annoying. Bologna huh....How did that taste smoked? Sounds pretty good, especially if you slice it and fry it after smoking for fried smoked bologna sandwiches.

    Full Pit King Smoke 6-22-08

    Man, now I'm hungry. So, how much did the temp drop when you put the meat on. That had to take at least 30 minutes.

    chuck roast how - to ????

    You can definitely treat it like a butt and pull it. Some around here say they can be a bit moody about pulling, but I've always run mine right up to 200* and they pull pretty easy. I also foil them around 165ish. As to rub, I think Jeff's Rub would be good on there, or any other rub you want...
