Aengus MacBain had requested info on fire pit cooking...

	Sorry for the tardiness in response...have just been going 
through my digests...

	Aengus, I have been cooking with a spit over an open fire 
and/or charcoal for over 30 years for group sizes from 2 to 200.  
Please contact me privately and I'd be happy to answer any 
questions/lend any advice or information that I can. Spit cooking is 
truly an art form that most don't appreciate until after they've eaten 
the food!  :-)   
	To answer your initial question, although it's not really much of 
an answer, the height the spit sits from the fire/charcoal depends 
on what type of food (beef, pork, fish, chicken, turkey, duck, 
goose, cornish game hens,  veggies, etc.) you are cooking, 
whether you have the food foil wrapped or not, etc.  It also depends 
on what style/type of spit you have...
