Would appreciate feedback on how y’all cook 70lb hog in Cajun microwave from the rub, +\- brine, +\- injecting to the method of cooking. Thanks in advance. Geaux tigers.

Domestic hog or feral?

Injecting and seasoning the cavity is about all you can do. There’s no point in an outside rub with skin that thick.

I punch holes in the outside skin with a sharp filet or boning knife and put spices (like rosemary) in the cuts. Inject and apply pressure to the plunger as you withdraw. Rub butter and Tony C's all over the skin.

Cook at 350 until internal temp is correct.

We always just seasoned pretty heavy with salt/ cayenne the day before and sprinkled extra salt as we were breaking it up to be plated.

I'd put some salt on the skin to help it to dry out and make cracklins on the skin. Eat that and save the meat for desert, LOL

Score the skin in a grid pattern and get the run down in there.
