Well, this isn't exactly pertinent to your request (since they built
their own pit- but there's some info you might use), but it's just such
a fun read that I always like to revisit it when the subject comes up-

Thanks for the web site, I like the piece on how to cook a hawg in
Missippi. I have a large drum gas smoker we are going to smoke 150 lb
pig (never tried one this big) to be ready to eat at 6pm saturday. I
am trying to figure out what time i should start cooking. i found a
site called askthemeatman.com it has alot of info, it suggest around 9
hours, but some of the other things i have read say good bit more
time. I guess this piggy is going to be a learning experience.
