i just got done with my first pig roast last week. I have the 70 lb box, and it easily fit a 65lb pig with the head on.
I brined it for 2 days, and injected marinade the morning of the roast.
one mistake that i did make was that a started roasting the pig when it had an internal temp of about 50 degrees. It took an extra 1.5 hours to cook.
The pig turned out great. actually, it was better than great.

I knew I'd run into the experts by posting here. Thanks for all of the info and tips guys. This was exactly what I was looking for and I'm taking notes.
As soon as the weather breaks I'm pulling the trigger on a box.
:-)
I just can't find any excuse not to after all the tasty pics posted.

The man takes pride in his hog and likes to show it off, nothing wrong with that.
:-)
Seriously though, when we few went into the front yard and were pulling pieces off the pig and dipping into the juice at the bottom of the box....well it doesn't get much better than that.
:-) Thanks for the great pig Carlos and letting us all have a pull on your hog.....
