A Cuban guy on a diet is driving to his local Miami health food store when he decides to pick up a hitchhiker who turns out to be Elvis. They drive down the road awhile and from out of one of the canals they see Bigfoot climb out and run cross the road.
They soon drive by an empty field on Krome Avenue. A flying saucer lands in front of them and five little green men climb out and start singing “Cuba Que Lindos Son Tus Paisajes.”
However, if you live north of the Mason-Dixon line, you've had several months full of good excuses not to roast a pig – the ones we have in mind include 10 below windchill temperatures and 16 inches of snow.
With the emergence of spring and warm weather in most of the lower 48, this is the best time to start planning your big pigroast.
Raúl was excited to finally meet Sonia after exchanging emails for a couple of years.
“We met Sonia on the Internet,” Raúl says. “I believe she probably sent an email to the Three Guys and Glenn probably answered her. But I soon started sending her my own emails and a great friendship was born.”
There is absolutely nothing like the taste of a whole roasted pig. We occasionally roast fresh hams or pork shoulders and although good, they never approach the great flavor of the whole hog!
It's the combination of the layer of fat that keeps everything moist and the intact skin that keeps all of those juices in the meat. The result? A slow-roasted pig that literally falls off of the bones!
We have shown hundreds of people how to roast pigs.
Don't let the thought of roasting a whole pig overwhelm you. It's easy, just take a look at how we do it.
"We build a "pig roaster" with concrete blocks, the kind you can pick up for a couple of dollars at your local Home Depot," Musibay says. "You need about 48 blocks to build a roaster four blocks high, four blocks long and two blocks wide."
Join the many people from all over the world who have earned their place in the Three Guys From Miami "Pigroasters Hall of Fame."

"Wonderfully illustrated throughout with full color photography of finished dishes, "Three Guys From Miami Celebrate Cuban" is a particularly "user friendly" and enthusiastically recommended addition to any kitchen cook's ethnic cuisine oriented cookbook collection." Mary Cowper, Midwest Book Review.
"No Cuban party would be complete without some sort of grilled meat - preferably pork - says Glenn Lindgren, who along with his brothers-in-law Raul Musibay and Jorge Castillo are authors of two Miami Cuban cookbooks - Three Guys from Miami Cook Cuban and the latest Three Guys from Miami Celebrate Cuban. Both are $29.95. The three also have a popular Web site with recipes, stories and all things Cuban at icuban.com." Kathy Stephenson, The Salt Lake Tribune
A great gift for Mother's Day!
