Oil Drum Pig Roaster Designs
Ok if your a hound for the outdoor dining, or as our more well educated friends would call its “al fresco”, and if your also a 100% MEATatarian like myself and proud of it, you will love this.. Have you ever been to a big outdoor food market or a big banquet and you see a pig being roasted on a spit and they are serving it up to everyone... well its not actually out of reach to impress your friends the next time you throw a big BBQ bash at your place, or even if you go camping or hunting a with a lot of people, you can build your own spit roaster using an old oil drum as a pig roaster.
All you will need is an old 55 Gallon or 205 liter oil drum and a few materials that can be picked up for your local metal materials supplier. The oil drum can be picked up from a scrap yard or a motor factors or mechanic's garage, another place you may find them is factories that take delivery of liquids stored in big drums.
The first step is to cut your drum in half, this can be done very simply by using an angle grinder, or if you happen to have a plasma torch that will do also, in fact all of the tools needed for this project can be rented from you local tool hire store, and works out a lot cheaper than buying welders and grinders.. When cutting the drum, make sure you have marked out nice straight lines with a permanent marker before cutting because later you will be attaching hinges and if your cut is uneven your hinges wont fit right and cause the opening and closing to be uneven.
The next step is to build a good solid frame to hold the drum, I have a couple of designs on my website whats4dinner2night.com that will make this a bit simpler but the main thing to remember is to make sure every joining is completely square!! the last thing you want at your outdoor event is a roaster falling over with a half cooked pig falling onto the ground, this is not a barbecue that will be holding a few burgers and sausages, this is a frame that will need to support a 250 pound pig. So be sure to measure twice and cut once, then use a welder to secure the frame at all joints. As you will see by the designs on my website you can custom build your oil drum pig roaster to have wheels for ease of movement or just have four legs if it will be static.
Now you need to get some hinges to attach the two halves of the barrels, you can simply weld these onto one half of the drums so that the drum will open and close in a clam like fashion, again I have designs for this on my site and links will be provided at the bottom of this article, if you want extra security you can fix the hinges to the barrels using nuts and bolts and then weld them as well just to be extra secure. Then we will weld the bottom half of the barrel to our frame.
The final step is the most important “the spit” is needed to hold the pig, you will need to cut two grooves out of the bottom barrel to house the spit, and you can design the spit however you want. You may go for a manual turning design or fashion an old motor to do the turning for you, but thats completely up to your imagination.

Gardening Question with a barrel !?
Hi, I am growing potatoes in a barrel here in Ireland !
I wanted to know any tips anyone has.. its like a big oil drum, I have so far put in about 12inches of soil and compost and planted the potatoes, now they are breaking the surface.. what next ? I wait for them to grow a bit and then add more soil ?
what about feeding them ? and ideas would be appreciated..
Get a big drum or barrel; arrange the drainage, holes in the bottom and stones, like a flower pot.
Fill the bottom with 12 inches of compost, or soil, and plant two or three chitted potatoes.
When the potatoes have grown to six inches, add another layer of soil or compost. Keep earthing them up, and the foliage will keep growing to keep its head above the soil. Underground the stalk will produce tubers all the way up the rising soil.
Potatoes grown this way will need a lot of water and feeding.
Come harvest time, tip the lot over, and out will roll a barrel-load of beautiful new potatoes.
Soil for potatoes should be high in phosphorus and potassium and very low in nitrogen , as nitrogen encourages foliage growth at the expense of the tubers.
Follow the results of a soil test to maintain a soil pH between 5.8 and 6.5 and optimal fertility levels. If a soil test has not been taken, remember that potatoes are heavy feeders and a complete fertilizer high in phosphorus . Sidedress about six weeks after planting (when tubers begin forming) with a high nitrogen fertilizer (5 tablespoons 34-0-0 ).
