    1. Cover the pig carcass with cold water and let it soak for 2 hours. 2. Meanwhile, make the marinade: mix the vegetable oil with the salt, ground black pepper, and curry, and let the spices steep for 15 minutes. 3. Take the pig out of the water and wipe it down with a towel to remove excess moisture. 4. Rub the pig all over with the fragrant oil mixture. It should marinate for at least 2 hours—better yet, leave it overnight in a cool place. 5. Get the pig ready for roasting by mounting it on the spit; run the spit as close to the spine as possible. 6. Set the spit over coals you've prepared ahead of time. Roast until done, turning the spit. The pig should get a crisp, golden crust outside while staying juicy and cooked through inside—the finished pig reaches an internal temperature of 170°F (77°C). 7. Take the carcass off the spit, let it rest for 10 minutes, then serve with fresh herbs and vegetables. Enjoy!
