Hog Roast

One of our customers sent us this photo from their recent hog roast. The guest of honor was one of our American Guinea Hogs. When someone questioned me as to how I choose which hog would be the right one for the spit, I just say that I opened the trailer door and yelled "who wants to go to a party!".  Actually, which hog is chosen is determined in part by the number of guests at the party, the customers wishes and what we have available at the time of the request. This guy weighed in at 134 lbs (live weight) and took 13 hours to cook over a hardwood fire. Actually, I think the Guinea Hog is one of the best out their for this style of cooking. It has just the right amount of fat to make for some great eating. Word is that it was "Ummmmm yummy." It definitely looks yummy to me! Thanks for the picture, Ken.
