- In today's video of Building A Pig Roaster From Scrap Here On Our Off Grid Homestead, Heather and I straighten up the frame work that goes on the top of the bbq pig roaster, we also straighten up the lid as well. Once this is all done we install the hinges we picked up, then I show you the handle I am going to be using.
The bbq is coming along a treat can't wait to see how u do the next part Cecil and Heather
Thanks Martin. You have a great day ttyl...Cheers.
Fun project and interesting too. Thanks for taking us along. Cheers
Thanks Erated78, I am glad you are enjoying the build. You are very welcome and thank you for watching. You have a great day ttyl...Cheers.
As usual, just a great vid to start the day. Thanks for posting.
Hey thank you very much, I am glad you enjoyed it. You have a great day ttyl...Cheers.
Do a side handle Cecil. Maybe one that is on a pivot with some stop and hold positions.
Have shop space rented out on a gentleman's agreement. Will be cutting back on work to do a lot of welding. Finally get to do welding projects like you.
Hi Heather & Cecil. That hog roaster is looking realy good. Take care. :-))
And a counterweight with a stop and lock down, also drop the opening handle lower down 12 inches from the lid on a little bit of an angle to keep your hand lower than the billowing heat. Very good job so far, l e d lights would be a nice one .
Really coming along!
I really like your idea of putting a handle on the end, you can make it longer to get a lot of leverage if someone who is trying to open it isn't very strong. You can also put an adjustable stop on the same end so the top can be held partially open for loading the wood at the beginning and leaving the lid partially open when you are first lighting the fire in case it is windy. Suckling pig is great roasted, makes a great table presentation also.
Good morning folks!!😀😀
It's coming along nicely!!
Looks like you have a good plan for the rest of the build. Might Google pig cooker and get some more info on the build.
Take care my friends!!😀😀
Your friend Al.
Good morning Al. Slowly but surely. Yeah I kinda have a plan... But that can change lol. Thanks Al, If I get some spare time I will do some more research on the build. You take care ttyl...Cheers.
Looks good Cecil
Perfect height. I have built and used a few of these and can tell you if you are bending over all the time, your back is gonna be killing you. Also, the temp for roasting pigs, depending who is cooking, is usually between 200° F and 300° F so getting burnt shouldn't be an issue. Good series, thanks for taking the time to upload it.
Comeing together nicely thanks for sharing
Thanks Mathew slowly but surely. Hey you are welcome. Thank you for watching. You have a great day ttyl...Cheers.
Good morning folks, missed last night aswell busy here on the homested
Good morning Six Banger... Sorry about last night, UA-cam was not having it last night. Yeah it is a busy time of the year for sure. You have a great day ttyl...Cheers.
She's coming along !!!
missed you last night. This pig roaster looks real good you do nice work as usual.
Cecil, your lucky your helper has such strong arms.
Nice work
Sorry guys mist your live show. The handles on the front at the end of the lids. The temp gauge needs to go on the lid close to the bottom off the lid . So it is closer to the true heat of what you are cooking at the top you at not getting to true temp .
Oiled-Fired Piggletts ... lol
It's looking good, I can smell the pig cooking already lol I'd probably put the handles on the sides due to the heat because I feel your going to get alot of heat rise out of their, either way I guessing to pig will taste great lol God bless besafe
That should do the job nicely, may want to put in some sort of lift brace when the lid is open so a strong gust of wind can't blow it shut. Also might want some sort of lid secure latch so it doesn't bounce and make all sorts of noise in transit unless it going to be pretty much in one place all the time.
Looking good. Missed you last night.
Yes sorry my friend....I think UA-cam was having issues, I tried several times and I couldn't connect to a live stream. We were really looking forward to the live stream as well. Cheers.
good build there
why not put hinged handle one each side with a long bar connected to each side so then it can drop down until you lift the lid that way you can have it much wider so you wont get any heat on your self
a bit like old style baby pram (uk) cart maybe in your neck of the woods
Brasil,boa idéia 👏👏👍👍
Hey Cecil, great BBQ project. I was wondering once you have a good amount of heat in the belly of her, the tires might melt, so maybe a little heat shield by the wheel 👍😉
I have found old metal timming chains work good instead of door hinges.
'Kay. Now all you need is a pig. I think the turkey said: "Don't get any ideas, dude". Something to that extend.
Yes we are getting closer to the piggy day. Lol I think you are right, he just kept strutting around in protest of the build. Thanks again. You take care and have a great day...Cheers.
If you want to cook a whole pig they have to be small and it still take 8 to 12 hours to cook. A bigger pig to speed up the cooking we will 1/4 or it could take over 24 hours to cook and you hope it will not burn.
Keep it simple
Good morning!can't wait to see it completed .nice design what size will you use for a gearbox reduction on the spit?miss the live feed last night.take care to the both of you.
do not forget a latch for the lid to hold it open looking dood
Thanks OTE. I was just going to use some chain to hold it open...And I just happen to have some laying around lol. Thanks again...Cheers.
Only one problem with the pig bbq.. I won't be there when yous try it out.. Lol..
Your doing a really great job on the spit. It's really good. Are you going to pain it with fire proof paint?
Are you going to put counter weight for lid so it is easy to open an shut smooth
That sounds like a great idea. I envision a removable bar that attaches on each end (once your in place and ready to cook) so the weight sticks out in the back. When the lid is opened, the weights would be against the lower back of the tub to hold the lid open and stop its travel. 👍👍👍
If you find it to hot to open the lid could you mack a lifting pole.
That will double up nicely as a smoker ! 🏴🏴🏴🏴
Thanks Jamie, I never thought of a smoker... But you are very right. You have a great day...Cheers.
To many adds. Are you so desperate for money that you're willing to lose subscribers.
If you are the type that will unsubscribe over 3 skip able adds, then you are the type that will cry over the slightest little thing Lauren... If it hurts you to hit the skip button that much... Please move on, Cheers.
You spend hours and hours filming, then hours editing and hours charging everything up. Then you have to tie up your internet for hours uploading. Not to mention the expensive cameras, editing software, laptops, sd cards, microphones, and others stuff I missed. All for free to you, they only get a little help from some subscribers and a pittance from youtube, but 15 seconds of ads is too much for you, you're being ridiculous.
@ War Monger, Yes thank you Very much, I don't think some folks really think about the work that goes into making a video... I do hope he is understanding enough to get it now. Thanks again my friend. You have a great day...Cheers.
@Lauren - I personally value their content enough to watch a few ads. I do not expect them to do all that work and provide entertainment and information to me for free. I am happy to do my tiny bit of supporting them by watching the ads. If I could I would do a lot more, being direct support but am unable.
