Hog Spit-Roast

Step 2 Mounting the hog on the spit

This is important to get this bit right - if the hog comes undone during cooking, you will have an unevenly cooked roast, not to mention the struggle you will have to remount a hot and greasy beast back on the spit. The best thing is to have clamps that attach the spine to the spit along a couple of places in addition to the typical spike grips that come with any rotisserie.

The end result should be that your hog is nicely balanced on the spit and should not move laterally or vertically when the spit is rotated.

Be sure to test the balance and attachment before firing the rotisserie up!
