wood fires with heavy pots(cast iron) hung just in front of the fire or placed in or on the fire and covered with coals depending on what food was cooked. sometimes a pit was dug with coals or wood put in the bottom. the food was wrapped with certain types of leaves or put in a pot or rack then covered and left for hours until food was done. ( this method was common for baked beans becase it took so long to cook. animals were skewered with a tree branch and perched over a fire. the person of least importance, usually a servant, had to turn the 'spit' so the meat would cook evenly.
