The pheasant was prepared for roasting using the receipt (recipe) To roast Pheasants but the roasting was accomplished with the use of the clock jack spit pictured. This roasting device has a governor, gears, pulleys and weights. Every five minutes, the weight on the opposite site of the hearth would reach the brick floor and I would need to wind it back up to maintain the turning of the spit.
