Roasting sticks, also known as spits, are long metal rods used to hold food over an open fire. They are typically used to cook large pieces of meat, such as whole chickens or turkeys, and can be adjusted to different heights to ensure even cooking. The food is secured to the spit with metal skewers and rotated slowly over the fire. Roasting sticks are a popular way to cook food outdoors, and can be found in many camping stores.
