Ingredients

• Half Pig
• Garlic
• Thyme
• Bay leaf
• Lemon
• Butter/pig fat
• Salt
• Pepper
• Water
• Dark beer
• Oregano

Instructions

• Preheat the grill (cover) at 350 to 400.
• Prepare a dressing with the pig fat (or butter if you can’t find pig fat).
• With garlic, thyme, bay leaf, oregano, salt and pepper, cover the pig with a silicon brush.
• Put your pig on the grill, meat side first.
• Cook for 3 hours, turning the pig every 45 minutes.
• Brush the pig every 20 minutes with dressing.
• Pour the beer over the pig after two hours. This helps the meat become more tender.
