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.

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!!!
