I tried researching this a couple of years ago, with not too much luck. No one else's videos were as informative as yours is, Joe. Had this video existed in 2010, I'd probably already own a La Caja China!

@tangojoe9694 10 жыл бұрын

You know Dan, I thought the same thing. There is even a video out there with Bobby Flay and it is not very informative about the product. Just doing my incredibly small part to show off what I think is a cool addition to the cooking arsenal. Thanks for watching.

Greetings Christopher, thank you for checking this out. It looked that all the videos posted about the La Caja China, of which there are too few, none have dealt with cleaning. Have a great Christmas!

Hi Hey, thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I wanted to include the cleaning tips, as no other video gets into that and it is quite a chore the first time you have to do. Have a great day!

those boxes look amazing I've been wanting one(along with a lot of other thing too). on their website, they have a smoke gun accessory. I loved when the mom said to her son "that's what real food looks like"! awesome pig Joe, you rock.

@tangojoe9694 10 жыл бұрын

Hey Michael, thanks for taking a look. I have seen the smoker attachment, though I am not sure how well it would work as I have not seen anything posted anywhere as to its effectiveness. The taste of the roasted pork was a big hit though.

@tangojoe9694 10 жыл бұрын

Hye RootBoy - Fire On The Box is right. The 4 to 4 1/2 hour cook time is what sold me on this in the first place and I can say it is pretty much spot on. The only thing that makes a difference is who long it takes to crisp up that skin after the turn. Damn that skin was like crack candy!

We thought that you would enjoy the roasting of the hog, a very cool way to cook one for sure. So far it looks like we will be in the Dallas / Fort Worth area right after the start of 2015 - we will be sure to have updates. As you know, we like to travel to where the food is awesome!

Right on Keith - porky's got some good eats on that skull. I can tell you, this box really does what it says, though most of the videos online leave a lot to be desired.

Would it be a good idea to foil the belly side so it doesn't burn?

@tangojoe9694 2 жыл бұрын

Placing foil would increase the roasting time and also decrease the flavor.

@mspcraigo Жыл бұрын

I have 2 of these boxes. You need the larger Box, Box #2. You have Box # 1 for pigs under 70lbs. That pig you had was over 70 lbs for sure and almost didn’t fit in the box. No way was it completely done in 3 hours.

@tangojoe9694 Жыл бұрын

The pig we purchased for this cook back in 2014 was just about 70 lbs if I can remember that far back. It was a tight fit, but cooked up real nice in the four hours they recommended. We did flip it at about the 3 to 3.5 hour mark. Still using this after nine years, a great product. Thanks for checking it out.

Ahh *WOW*!! That's one badass pig cooker for a badass dude.. Loved the video brother, you makin me hungry now! BTW, I see a pbc behind you, (PitBarrelCooker). Do you have any reviews on it or thoughts? I really been thinking about getting one. Either that or starting with the smokenator for my weber. Any preference on your part? Thanks, and as always, Cheers bud!

@tangojoe9694 10 жыл бұрын

Hey Chad, have to say that the Caja China is a great cooker. Being able to roast an entire pig in less than 5 hours is where it's at. The other stuff I have is going to eventually get a review on video. The smokenator is a cool item for the kettle, though to start off you can use some bricks to line off one portion of the kettle for a low & slow indirect cook. The PBC is very cool, been getting the hang of that one. Def worth the $$. Also look into a WSM - fantastic cooker.

@ChadChadillac 10 жыл бұрын

Awesome, thanks for the reply, tips, and the heads up on the upcoming reviews. I'll be on the lookout for them. Cheers bud.
