We always put rocks over the coals in the pit.Wet leaves or a piece of non
galvanized tin or metal next.
Then the pig wrapped in first clean soaking canvas. To this another wet
piece of canvas then several dry pieces.Over this you place the dirt from
the pit . Then you hope it does not rain. After 12 to 15 hours later
carefully pull out dirt, coverings then the cooked pig .If all is well the
pig should be falling apart and tinder. The coals should be at least 2 feet
in depth .  Much easier to rent a pig cooker. Then you can watch it.
     Ps This will work for up to a140 to 150 Pig or hog if you must.
