Pig Roast

P1010550 The pig roast was held at our house last Monday (for them it was a holiday, “Nuclear Victims Day”  kind of like our Memorial Day) After we dug a big hole,  about 1 foot deep,the sisters put many coconut husks and sticks in the ground and above ground until it was about 1 foot above ground.  Then they covered that stuff with coral rocks. The husks were lit then from the sides below the coral. The third pic shows the fire burnt down just below ground level. Time to cover the coral with leaves of different variety for protection and flavor. Then comes the pig topped with more leavesP1010559

It cooked practically all day and was it delicious!  The flavor was so good!  Here they are peeling the leaves off.  The sister, Namu took the head home for herself!!
