I wanted to do something special for my daughter on her graduation and I wanted it to be something more personal than money can buy. With that in mind I decided to smoke a whole hog for her celebration with the idea that very few graduates will have a whole smoked hog as the main course for their grad party. We just finished rubbing it down and it's currently in the cooler soaking up the yumminess. Hope it looks as good to you folks as it does to me. Best guess is about 85 lbs of mouth watering goodness. I'm planning about 15 hours of smoke time to get it to where I want it. I hope it turns out like I plan.
