 Our La Caja #2 box cooker just arrived!  Thats what the 90lb hog will be cooked on for Christmas.
Now I have to put it together.
 I'll post some pics once thats done. Plus I'll need to give it a test run.
Wish me luck!

If you don't want to buy one and have space I think it would be pretty easy to build. I'll post pics of all the parts ...
I was thinking one could even build one with bricks for a perminent pit....

I've been intrigued by the Caja China for a while.  I'd be curious to know what you thought of the flavor after your first cook.  Since, unlike a smoker, it doesn't add any flavor, I'd love to know how you find it compares to just cooking in an oven.  Also, it looked like it uses a lot of charcoal compared to a smoker.  After you've cooked on it I'd love to know if you thought it was worth using that much charcoal.
