The Fire pit
The meat must be wrapped very tightly before placing it in the fire pit for the cooking process. Once your decision has been made to what item or product you will use then you will follow these steps carefully. After flavoring the meat, you will wrap the meat with several layers of aluminum foil or the other product you decided to use. The meat in the foil must be wrapped thoroughly with lots of wet burlap material this is done to preserve the juices, flavors, and the heat. Finally you will need to wrap the meat package with a heavy wire. When wrapping the meat package with heave wire be sure to wrap it very securely and tie it off extremely tight. This process will not only preserve the juices, heat, and flavors but it will also give you something to hold onto securely when placing into the fire pit.
A tip to remember when you are cooking a whole hog on a fire pit is sure to prop the mouth open because this will allow the heat to thoroughly cook the entire hog. Once the meat is in the fire pit you will need to cover it all with dirt. By covering the meat package with dirt ensure that the burlap material will not burn because no oxygen will get inside the pit. The hot coals is what allows the meat to cook for up to several days if needed. Once the meat is fully cooked to time it will be time for everyone to enjoy the wonderful feast.
