A hog is generally a pig which is roasted in public to celebrate gatherings. This has been a tradition in many countries and they have been following it since today. Initially people used to conduct such parties for family but now days hog roast is the major dish on the menu for corporate parties, weddings etc. If you are also looking forward to conduct a hog roast party then the major requirement will that be of a roaster. There are portable roasters in the market available on rent.
However if you are more interested in making your own roaster then here is a simple way in which you can do so:
Step1: Take a stainless steel rod and mark 1.5 inches from each end of it.
Step 2: Starting from the initial mark, keep marking the rod at a distance of 2 inches till half foot.
Step 3: Make holes in the marks that you have created. You can use the drill for creating these marks. Also make a hole in the center of the rod.
Step 4: Take a cylindrical drum and make a hole at each of its side. The diameter of the hole must be equal to the diameter of the rod.
Step 5: Cut the drum into two equal halves forming the upper and the lower half and now weld both the halves on each end of the rods.
Step 6: To allow ventilation within the drum, you can pierce various half inch holes into the bottom.
Step 7: Place a thick metal sheet at the bottom of the drum to provide it with a thick base.
Step 8: If you need handle for the upper part of the roaster, you can easily bend a metal rod and weld it on the top of the upper drum which can now be used as a lid.
Step 9: If you wish to get a portable roaster, you can easily place the above structure on a rail and transport it.
The rod is used to hold the hog while the lower drum acts as a store for the charcoal. Preparing your own roaster can be quite fun sometimes especially when you are holding a family event. Such kinds of roasters are also highly appropriate for holding small hog roast parties for close friends and family.
