Put the quarter in a large oven bag. Pour a couple of bottles of your favorite marinade and spices in it.
Put bag away from direct flame and let boil for an hour or so in the marinade.
Remove and throw in smoker and brown.

I did a whole pig this weekend and it turned out great. I rubbed it down with italian dressing and my favorite rub. Tossed it on the smoker until thee meat just started pulling from the bone (about 3 hours at 250) then put in a foil pan with a bottle of shiner bock beer and covered in foil until the meat was falling off the bone (another 3 hours or so).

put it in a cooking dish, like a pyrex or something......cover it with one apple and one yellow onion (both diced). Season with salt, pepper, garlic. Cover with foil and cook overnight at about 275. When you get up in the morning pour out the grease and pull meat apart with a couple of forks. Mix in some sweet baby rays and put on a sandwich... awesome pulled pork.

All of the above ideas are great. If it is a wild hog it is going to be a very tough and dry meat. Wild hogs, typically, do not have a good fat on them. They tend to dry out quite a bit. So basting is essential when cooking a wild one. I use canola oil. I have cooked it several ways, but my favorite so far is by marinating it in a premixed margarita blend. Don't spend the money on the one's with takillya in it. After it has marinated for a length of time to get it to room temperature, I keep it in the aluminum pan that I marinated it in and throw it on the cooker. About 250 degrees for 2 hours. Then I take it out and put it on the cooler (~200) side of the pit for enough time to get it to an internal temp of about 165 and a good smoky, barked exterior. The whole time basting it in 30 min intervals. (using the marinate and oil) The seasonings are to your taste. I like to put a dry rub on it just after I take it out of the marinate onto the pit. I toss the leftover rub in the marinate that I am going to bast with.

I like to take the meat and put small slices arounf the meat with a knife. Big enough, and deep enough that I can cram a garlic clove, and a piece of sliced jalepenoe in the cut. Then rub it down really good with a mustard/oil mixture. Then apply what ever dry rub you like onto the meat and leat sit for at least 30 minutes. Then put it on the smoker for several hours at 225 degrees. No basting , no nothing.
Good Luck!
