FAQ

What is the difference between the galvanized box and the aluminum box?

That is a great question because many people ask, "Which is the preferred box"? Our aluminum model has been our main box for over twenty-three years. It's our bread and butter. All of our boxes are high quality. As long as you keep it away from adverse weather, it will last you a lifetime. We began producing a galvanized model after a local competitor began producing galvanized boxes. The galvanized steel tends to rust if not cleaned promptly after use. We highly recommend getting the aluminum model if you are in-between the two of them. It is more durable and will outlast the galvanize model.

Can I cook different types of meat at the same time?

If the cooking times are the same you can cook it at the same time. (Example: chicken and ribs)

What is the best way to marinate the pig?

Inject the pig the night before with La Caja China Mojo and rub it down with La Caja China Adobo. Also, give the skin a good rub down with salt.

Keep the marinated pig on ice over night in a large cooler. If you do not have a large cooler you can keep it inside your La Caja China with the ice bags over the pig.
