Where to get a spit for a hog roast?
« on: December 15, 2007, 01:10:46 PM »
Where can one buy a spit suitable for a ~100lb hog? Even cabelas doesn't seem to have anything like that online.

Maybe a rare occurence, but then you only have to get murdered once to ruin your whole day.

Not a real technical device If I was planning to do it I would consider making my own... but here is an interesting link...

A closet clothes rod would work....

Availlble at most hardware stores.  Just char it over a fire first before running it through the pig.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
