Don't think the Clarion would let us do it there.  Not sure about other places.  I know of a park or two accessable from the lake, but the pits there are just the small open charcoal ones you typically see.  I would happy to offer my back yard for the cooking, only problem is I don't have a pit large enough to put it on.  Just have a Weber Kettle charcoal grill, a seperate gas grill, and a small Brinkman electric smoker.  How were you guys thinking about doing the cooking?half?  

It is just one of the small round Brinkman smokers.  Somebody gave it to me.  Actually it is pretty old so I need to plug it in to see if it still works.

And here I was thinking you was going offer to cook us some dogs on the grill   same for me, hold the onions but do put hot dog relish on mine.  I don't know what time wife and I will get there on Friday. Our intention is to leave very early Friday morning, its a normal 6hr drive by car, so figure maybe 7 or possibly 8 pulling the toon there. So if we leave by 6am, that'll put us there at 2pm at the latest.

I am not a fan of Cajun Boilers, but then that is just my opinion.  Being from Louisiana I am kind of picky about my sea food anyway.

I have a couple of coves that me and the family usually hang out it.  I can offer those up or we can find some others.  I'll let you guys decide.  Any idea how many boats we will have?

Yep, that was me as long as we got someplace to cook it. Vondy, what do we have available to cook on up there (near the hotel, dock or whatever?), or if we can have an outdoor fire, build a ground pit, build a good fire, (or charcoal could do it), put rocks or something, cover the porker in foil and cook away for a few hours. I could start early Saturday morning and have it ready for lunch.

I will go ahead and tell him to start putting one on corn and clean him out if yall want

Brian, when it gets butchered, make sure somebody rubs the little porker in salt, or we'll put him in a brine solution on Friday. I've located a place in Little Rock (hour away) that rents big grills so I'll make arrangement (or vondy might could and we all can chip in the pot for expenses or something). http://www.rentalhq.com/MemSiteNav8.asp?alt=partytimerentala ndeventscom&pg=656 I'll call this place tomorrow and get more info on it. Vondy do you know of a rental place in Hot Springs?  I'm gonna forget about the deep fat frying method . It won't have the rotessior but I'll just have to manage on the turning of the porker. Oh and we may be coming Thurs afternoon instead of Friday, so Brian, we could possibly cook the porker Friday night before bed. We could all join together and have a group pic done if it isn't dark by then. Like to get another group pic on Saturday when we all on the boats.

Wife got an answer back from some place and they put us on to somebody in Hot Springs, AR with a towable smoker, will contact them Monday to see what kind of arrangments we can make on it.
