How long did it take them to cook that 200lb pig, on the TV show? We put this one on at about 8:00 in the morning & ate about 2:00 in the afternoon....

It's my variation of a Cuban pig roaster.......There's only 3 components. All from Home Depot.
Cinder blocks, rebar, re-mesh wire.......my neighbor welded everything together in his driveway with a little garage welder.....

Stay away from Galvanized metal....plan steel or stainless only.......don't cook with galvanized.....good luck.....

You need a rack/shelf for yours to do them taters en corn, how big would it have to be?

IDK, the pit is 2 blocks wide. This was the first time we ever tried cooking potatoes & corn also. We waited a couple of hrs before we put them in. If we had put them in when we put the pig on, everything would be finished at the same time....

I gave this a little more thought and I've figured out an easy way to add a rack. If we offset some of the cinder blocks to the inside, just enough to create a little shelf, I'll cut a few more pieces of rebar to lay across. We can put the potatoes & corn into a large alum turkey pans and set them up on the rebar. All we need is a few pieces of rebar........I think I have some in the garage....

I could put notches in the bricks with a grinder and special grinding wheel I happen to have. I need 4 amps to run the grinder.
