Ever had a spit roast?

I had one once, not just me obviously was a few others there but that was exquisite.
 
  • #37
In fact, I have not. Any time that I've tried to roast spit, it just evaporated.
 
  • #38
So you've never skewered a big old hog and roasted it on a fire? You will have to try it some time.
 
  • #39
Oh, I've had cookouts... we just never spit on the food.
