Installation and Operation Instructions
Stone Age Big Pig™ and Little Pig™ Smoker Ovens
1.0 Introduction
The following provides instructions for the installa-
tion and operation care of Stone Age Big Pig™ and
Little Pig™ (SA-SM-BP8 and SA-SM-LP6)
Smoker Ovens, manufactured by Stone Age Manu-
facturing, Collinsville, Oklahoma.
Three generations of wood-burning masonry con-
struction experience have gone into the design and
construction of these smoker oven kits. A com-
pleted Little Pig oven, finished in natural stone, is
shown in Figure 1.
Stone Age smokers are unique in that they are the
only masonry/metal smoker units which can be
covered in the same masonry finish material as the
rest of your outdoor kitchen.

The key differences between the Big Pig™ and
