I'm not sure what kind of smoker you are using...on my block cooker, I like to place the hot coals under the hams and shoulders, not the ribs. They will get enough heat to cook.
Channel any drippings away from the heat, you do not want flair ups.

On my horizontal, I like to start the ham end closest to the heat source and switch ends half way through cooking... wire under the pig helps move it.

24square foot cooker? That's a biggun.

The last whole pig I did I injected all over with Chef Williams Creole Garlic marinade. Out of a 108 pound pig, I had one gallon size zip lock of leftovers. Good luck!
