My little 3 1/2 lb roast took about 5 hours, so extrapolating, 100 lbs of dressed pig should take - mmmm - let's see, 150 hours divided by 24 is 6.25 days. Almost a week. I should think the children DID get bored and cranky. I have never been to a pig roast waiting for a pig to roast, but once, when I was young, my grandmother, who lived in Biloxi, drove way out into the country, it may have been to Alabama, which isn't that far, and we got some meat from a black man who had dug a pit in the ground, filled it with coals, put a grill over it, put the pig on the grill, and covered it with foil, I think, and then put the dirt back on top? Not sure about the last step. I think it took overnight to cook, at least. There were also people handing out potato salad, and beans, and everyone was sitting at picnic tables or on cloths on the ground. We may have been the only white people there. I have no idea why we only did it that one time, it was very good.
