Title: Kerry's moms 75th Birthday
Post by: tlg4942 on August 11, 2015, 04:01:00 PM
 We went to Kerry's sisters this week end for her moms 75th birthday.
 I wanted to share a couple pics.
The pig was cooked by Chad Stapletons Catering.  Good but no smoke...
 He got $500.00 bucks for this 100#pig, 2 pans of mac & cheese, and 1 pan of beans. The pig was in a nice steel baking pan and the sides in a loaner Hot Box. About 30-35 grownups.
I carved a little over half the pig and there was a little of that left over.

The pineapple tree was a big hit. Kerry's brother made it from a metal stand, pineapples,ferns etc...  . Square 1" tube with a 8 inch flat base welded to the bottom.

Sounded like a serious party!  Too bad there was no smoke flavor in the pig.  Cooked in a gas pit, I'll bet.  I have had whole hogs cooked in gas pits that had some smoke flavoring, from wood chunks, not liquid smoke.  In fact I helped cook one that way and it was outstanding.  Cooking whole hogs is different ball game.

Happy birthday to Kerry's Mom.

I like the palm.

Looks like y'all went all out to make this a great party...must be a great mom and mother-in-law. 
If she's anything like Kerry, I'd bet on it.
