You might be a Redneck if you still BBQ your pig in the Ground.

"RedNeck Roaster" is something only a Redneck would understand. Here is some pictures of my "RedNeck Roaster" that I made for the 4th of July celebration. Of course we used it earlier than that to test it.

"Original RedNeck Roaster"


There is no Secret Design technique's that I used. This whole thing come about when two son's went out fishing and called me at 4:30 in the morning and siad, "Pops we gonna need help, we got four wild hog's dead and need someone to clean them." Now being the Father that I am I replied, "Well get on to the house and I will be up and ready to clean them." 

Once we got started the thoughts of how am I going to cook four wildhog's at one time. So I of course went to the internet to investigate how I was going to Build a Cajun Microwave. Well after some time I found a website that would give you the design's to make a Cajun Microwave. So I pushed the button to order the plans. And after looking at the plans I decided to just look around and find somethings around the house that I could use to build my own pit in the ground. 

I decided to do this because as a youngster growing up I can remember my Dad and Uncle's cooking hog's in a Open pit and in the Ground. So with all those Memories of my Father I went and found a few items that I had just laying around. First I come across a old outdoor patio table that was just laying around. In my mind this was exciting cause I had something that was big enough to put a couple of hog's on. And after looking around I found some old tin about 3' tall. So I took the tin measured up about 18" and placed that line even with the table top. And then I used some self-tapping tin screws to tie it together. After that I left a small amount of space in between them to put firewood through.

After getting everything all together we started digging a pit in the ground. We made the hole about 18" deep to allow the smoke to cook the meat. Then we went ahead and place some wood in it to pre-burn and clean the pit out so we didin't contaminate the meat with any toxin's. And boy did we build a fire, the whole rake or table was glowing red. And it was all ready to cook on now. This is what one of the hog's looked like after we got done cooking:

"Dinner's Ready Come and Get It"

As you can see we had a great time cooking and enjoyed every minute of. I would like to give thanks to son's and to my Father whom I miss alot.

Here's the picture of my two boy's before we cleaned the wildhog's;
