Has anyone attempted a whole suckling pig on the rotisserie 26"?
I may just pull the trigger on a 26 kettle just to be able to do this. Any thoughts?

It's one of my goals. A whole suckling. Not on roti, but indirect. So not much advice here, just encouragement.

I don't have any desire to eat a sucking pig but owning a 26 is a must in my book. Best bang for the buck.

I've heard of this being done with ease on a ranch.
Malcolm Reed has a video on how to cook one on his How to Bbq Right channel.

If you do this PLEASE post pics! On the picture above it does not look like the lid would close tightly. I'd take some measurements of the pig before I bought it.

Stay tuned. I'll be picking up a 26 this afternoon. Im hoping the suckling pig will be my first cook on it this weekend.

Sent my boss some pics of my first rotisserie chicken a couple weeks ago and his Filipino wife immediately said I should make lechon on it. She seemed to think that we could get a pig small enough to fit on the 22 incher. Not sure how accurate that is but sure has me intrigued now.
Found this on you tube. Karmel used a 22.5 SSP. Google, Whole Hoggin', NYC Style: How to Spit-Roast a Suckling Pig on a Rooftop Grill
I saw that one video with a small pig on a 22. Definitely on the list to try.
Agree 100% ...prefer it over my beloved Gen2 Performer lol

Trial run on the 26 rottiserie with a ribeye roast. The extension ring is from Spitfire Grilling. This thing is awesome! I added the stainless rotti kit from Onegrill with the 70lbs torque motor. They say is good for up to 50lbs of a well balanced load. Should be more than enough for the piggy. I really enjoyed cooking on this thing. And the roast came out amazing.

I totally forgot about this thread. My apologies. I ended up doing it at christmas time. Unfortunately i had to cut off the head to fit it all in there. Next time i will do a smaller pig. This one was 30ish pounds.
The meat ended up super juicy, just didnt have enough time to crisp up the skin and the guests were getting restless.
As a note of caution, i ended up with a small scratch in my finger trying to push the ubolt through the spine and skin. Next day i woke up with a swollen hand, sore elbow and axilla. The infection was running up my arm, and needed to take strong antibiotics for 10 days. Dr said if i didnt get better in a few days i would have to be hospitalized and have IV antibiotics administered. Thankfully i did get better. So wear your butchers glove when attempting to pierce that ubolt!!!

Very cool setup !! glad you were able to recover from your wound
26" rotti ring... Hell yeah, I can do a typical 22lb sucking pig no problem. I'm in.

I keep leaning towards getting a 26 roti too, I have no idea why I just don't do it

Darko do you have any tips on how to crisp up the skin?
Also for those of you considering a 26" roti ring, i got mine from spitfiregrilling, 3-1 model with the pizza door. Mike is an awesome dude and im very happy with my ring.
