I just did this for the first time on a 8 pt i got 2 weeks ago. this is what I did
first remove as much as possible skin, jaw, extra meat, ect.
I bought a 21 quart pot from wal-mart for like $25 perfect size.
Heat the water up inside then move it to the out side fire.
put head in and boil all day. take out every hour or so and scape stuff off.
the longer you boil the better.
P.S the head really stinks when you first start cooking it so at least start it outside, I finished the cooking inside.
Then it s down to scraping all the little pieces of flesh off. A screw driver works well.

know for whitening, there are two ways to do this, bleach and hydrogen peroxide.
many people say dont use beach because it makes the bone flake, but I didnt have enough peroxide so I used beach anyways. I used 30% bleach to 80% water, and it whitened it up in about 12 hours or so. And it didnt get all flaky like people say.

I will post pictures in a little bit so you can see how it came out.
 
o you mean the nose part ya since this was my first i didnt really know what i was doing so i pulled those bones off now i have to glue them back on.
But how long should have i cooked it for?
