Look at the size of this pig - 500 lbs, bagged 2 weeks ago in North Carolina.  The story is on Yahoo I bet you would need an XXL to cook the ham!

Breaking this bad boy down and cooking him up would make for some good threads on here!

    There have been numerous stories like this in the past and every one I have seen was trick photography. The guy with the gun in the back is really 10 feet away and the photographer is just far enough away from the pig to make it fit in the picture.

    That is not a hoax. That hog was killed in Bertie County, NC, which is the number one peanut producing county in the state. They decimate the peanut fields up that way, and this is the result of the all you can eat peanut buffet. Here is another link with some different pics of the same hog. This is not the first one he has killed that size.
