"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Directions:
Prepare meat for cooking by cleaning thoroughly. Place a combination of the following inside the meat:

Apples, onions, garlic (we use a generous amount of garlic), lemon, celery, wine (a lot of wine), almost anything to your liking. Place meat on a spit and cook over an open fire. Fire should have been started long before to acquire mostly hot coals. Keep adding wood to keep fire hot. If an electric spit is not available, someone needs to turn the spit during the cooking process.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Cooking crew should be able to sample the wine used in cooking. Sometimes they even taste the beer and whisky during the process of turning the spit!

This crew have cooked for many a family gathering and we all have enjoyed your great cooking. This has been a tradition that has been passed down for generations and hopefully many more.
