Labor Day Pig Roast
By Phil Torre
Sunday my father in-law had a Labor Day pig roast on the deck at his restaurant, Dolphin's Cove in Bridgeport, CT. They cooked a 166 pound pig on a homemade spit, it was pretty awesome and I thought I would share a few pictures.

Top view of the pig with some potatoes and corn cooking underneath.

Still cooking. My mouth was watering at this point.

My brother in-law Gary turning the spit. The spit was not turning continously, it was turned manually at different intervals and when one part of the pig was cooked, they would turn it up and slice meat off while the rest was still cooking over the fire.

My other brother in-law Brian slicing off some pig for hungry friends waiting patiently.

What was left near the end of the day. There was actually still a lot of meat left at this point, especially around the legs. But don't worry, we managed to do a lot more damage to it by the time the cookout ended.
