What is a spit and how can it be
On my way
In marching conditions, a horizontal spit is used, or a conventional metal rod can be used. If you want to cook fresh fish, first you need to clean it well and gut it. Watch out for the fire to be small, otherwise your prey may take a crust from above, but inside it will be moist. Correctly adjust the height, because for large game you should put the spit higher, and for a small bird or fish, it is necessary to lower the device below. Experienced hunters often practice the method of cooking game at the stake, when it is simply clayed with clay from all sides and put directly into the fire. Then wait for the signal. When the clay begins to crack, it means that the meat is ready and can be removed. After that, the game is cut into pieces and hung on a spit to ensure that the meat is well roasted and a ruddy crust appeared.
