I'm doing another whole hog this weekend and need a good rub and injection recipe. Think I just used Tony's last time. I will season and inject Thursday afternoon and cook Saturday morning. A small about 60lb hog. Want something that will really penetrate the meat and add flavor.

We use apple juice and any flavored injection you can purchase in the store (garlic, butter, etc...)

For the rub we use Kosher salt and this:

this is what i use. the mixture is sicky and will hold the spices on the pig

Cooking a pig

Need
• 1 liter of coke
• 1 bottle of Worchester sauce
• 1 bottle of mustard
• 1 bottle of Italian salad dressing
• 1 bottle of honey
• 1 can of seasoning
• 1 jar of Cajun injector Creole Garlic




Put pig in box. Inject whole jar of Cajun injector into pig. Then empty half of the coke. Add half of the Italian salad dressing. Add half of mustard and Worchester sauce. Add a quarter of the honey. This will make two bottles of mixture. Shake up and apply to pig. Add seasoning after that. Cook pig for 4 hrs at 250. Remove top and flip pig and apply the rest of mixture. Cook for another 2 hrs and then check pig.

not a fan of the Italian dressing my buddy puts it on everything but again he cant cook im sure it works out great for you. The way i was raised to do it was simple and easy.

1.) stick whole garlic cloves in it form head to toe in the hams, shoulders, the tenderloin all over

2.) then just bud tons of tony's on it its never failed me
everyone does it a little different though

Think I'll do this and use about three or four bottles of the injection. Then I'll lightly oil the outside and rub the outside. It will sit for about 30 hours prior to cooking so it should add flavor.

oh yea forgot...you put the mixture on and inject right before you start to cook the pig. don't have to let the pig sit over night. i use italian salad dressing when we cook a wild pig to get the wild taste out of it. you can substitute with whatever you want.
