    Also most of the pig will be over the pan so it will be easy to suck the grease out if the pan plus I have two under the grate for the left over water from the apple chips for extra mosture

    Is the backbone still intact, or is it broke to bend him? Looks like the hair is off. When are you putting him on? I bet you're getting excited!! I am...hahaha

    Virgin trays- I can't wait to see this. We're thinking about having a piggy tiki party next summer! (We like to plan well in advance! Ha! Ha!)

    Debating between egged piggy or building a pit.

    Can't wait to see Porky cooked up.

    Please measure the fat drippings. I'm curious how much fat will be rendered. Will look forward to the pics.
