For Halloween this year we roasted half a hog. It was an amazing experience. We picked it up from the good folks of Riverview Farms, stored it in our upstairs bathtub for two days, and then put it in our caja china. It was awesome.
Here it is in the bathtub . . .
And here, freshly decapitated on my front porch (gawd I'm glad my vegetarian neighbor's kids didn't come wandering over, or their dog)
mmmmmmm, seasonings
Ready for roasting!
Done! (mmmmmmm, crispy skin!)
