Roasting over a free fire (the fire spits out burnt little pieces of wood)
Spit roasting
In this instance, I think the "spit" is a means for roasting or rotisserie-cooking the oxen.
One is able to find more information about spit roasting at several different online websites including the following: All Recipes, YouTube, and the Cooks website.
A 'spit' is the rod which holds meat over an open fire, or in an oven.
A spit is a metal bar passed through the meat which is then placed over a fire/ heat source and rotated to slowly cook the meat. It usually results in exceptionally juicy meat, as the juices tend to stay in the meat rather than running out, and a very crispy, caramelized outer layer.
A "spatchcock" is a term used in a professional kitchen. It is a dressed chicken that is split down the back for roasting or broiling on a spit. The word originated around 1775-85. A more modern form is "butterflying a chicken".A "spatchcock" is a term used in a professional kitchen. It is a dressed chicken that is split down the back for roasting or broiling on a spit.

Rotisserie is a style of roasting meat on a spit while it is skewered and roasted. It originated in Paris, France in the 1450's when the meat started to be cooked this way in restaurants.
The Hog Roast restaurant is located in Cornwall England and is a family run restaurant. They are known for having a pig continuously roasting on a spit in the back garden of the restaurant.

roasting in chemistry
well it depends what your roasting.
Put it on the spit (self explanatory) and then season it and add fat. Personally I like to add either Chinese 5 spice powder or else Aniseed powder on it (trust me on this it will be the best flavour you've ever had even if you hate aniseed) then wrap it in fatty bacon held on with toooth-picks and then roast it via spit (oven or grill) It'll be lovely.
