For hundreds of years the problem of feeding a big crowd on high days and holidays was resolved by spit-roasting a whole animal, and the operation itself became a focus of the festivity. Today, although entire carcasses are no longer so simple to come by, a return to informality even in huge gatherings has brought about revived involvement in spit-roasting and hog roasting.During his years in South Africa, Grant spit-roasted many an animal. Unfortunately he was not able to fit his spit-roaster into the container that brought his belongings to the United Kingdom. It was Grant’s passion for hog-roasting and Scott’s want to own and use such a specific piece of cooking equipment, that led them down the path of contriving and inventing the ultimate spit-roaster. An 800-pound monster that would spin a rhino effortlessly over a bed of hot coals.Of course any kind of animal can (and should) be fair game for spit-roasting. Whatever the animal, it is normally a time consuming exercise and a screw up can be pricey! Perhaps to a greater degree than any other type of barbecuing or grilling, a spit-roast has the potential to be a great success, or an complete disaster. It requires perfect preparation right from the purchase of the carcass to its serving - and plenty of time for the roasting, and accompanying beer-drinking ritual! For the most part the rules of the game are fairly similar, but for purposes of example we will center on roasting pigs and a hog roast.
