Fit on Gossamer very well. I rubbed him with olive oil and a generous sprinkle of salt.

That was some cook, sfdrew. :-D :smt023:smt023 :coffee2:
How long did the cook take and what was the cooking temp.?

It took about three hours. I started at 250 but it drifted up to about 300 at times as I was running errands. Once the ham got to 160–65 I turned up heat to about 400 to melt fat around skin. About twenty minutes st that temp. The skin was still leathery so I peeled and ftied it up once the pig was rested.

On a side note...I almost made my best mate(gal who was my best man at wedding) throw up at table. I asked her if she wanted to eat the eye(which was really a grape). She got all grossed out and said no. I then proceeded to dig the “eye” out with my fork and nonchalantly ate it. She was dry heaving until I told her it was a grape. . Nothing like messing with great friends.
