The recipe for pig iron is: one Template:L Template:L, one Template:L material and one Template:L create one pig iron bar. Note that this fuel is part of the reaction. You will need another item of fuel to power the smelter unless you're using a Template:L.

Pig iron is used solely as a component in the manufacture of Template:L and cannot be used for any other purpose other than as a basic building material - dwarves who like pig iron may be happier in a room whose floors and walls are made of it, but otherwise there is little point in keeping pig iron on hand (aside from Template:Ls).
