Shot a little pig (30lbs) and want to cook it (shot in head so didn't ruin the meat). I skinned it and removed its head and lower limbs. I've rubbed it down and it's in the fridge waiting to be cooked. I'm cooking it on my BGE with a water bath under neath it. I've got some pecan wood for smoke.

Any tips or things I should consider? I was thinking about throwing an onion and apple in the cavity and maybe making a baste. TIA.

Lay it on its back.
Split the spine
remove the spinal chord
lay some stick butter in the spine
Lay some Jimmy Dean Breakfast Sauasge in top of that
Rub it with your favorite rub
smoke it

If you're planning to cook it today it's too late, but if you have the time I'd brine it.
