The butcher shop - great folks!!

It is simple to create a temporary pig pit. Just stack cinder block in
a 3-sided configuration about 40" high. Make it long enough and wide

you don't think the heat from the coals will make the blocks shatter?
Block/brick always has some moisture in it.

SLOW heat + PIG = GOOD..
