We cooked a half hog plus a shoulder Sunday....put it on the pit about
5:30am, served guests at 6pm. Cooked on a brick pit with coals generated by
burning oak slabs down. We pulled and chopped the shoulders and ham,
leaving the center section (ribs, tenderloin, backstrap, etc) of the pig on
the pit for pickin.

The Q and pickin section were lightly salted and a sauce of vinegar based
sauce was provided. According to the guests, it was excellent. Being the
cook, I did not care to partake.

A picture of the pig going on, then later being chopped is below via link.
Due to sleep deprivation, I failed to snap a photo of the finished
pre-chopped pig.
