Méchoui
Méchoui ( ar, مشوي}) or ''Meshwi'' is a whole sheep or lamb spit-roasted on a barbecue in Maghrebi cuisine. The word comes from the Arabic word ''šawā'' (, "grilling, roasting"). This dish is very popular in North Africa. In Algeria and Morocco, the term ''méchoui'' "refers to the method of cooking a lamb or a sheep cooked whole on the spit". In Tunisia, however, it applies to any piece of meat or fish grilled with embers. Preparation After having slaughtered and dismembered the young lamb, all the organs of the stomach cavity are removed, with the exception of the kidneys. This cavity is stitched after being sprinkled with spices, particularly ras el hanout. The lamb is skewered on a tree branch and cooked next to a pile of embers. The spindle is rotated slowly and evenly so as to ensure evenly distributed cooking.

List Of Spit-roasted Foods
This is a list of notable spit-roasted foods, consisting of dishes and foods that are roasted on a rotisserie, or spit. Rotisserie is a style of roasting where meat is skewered on a spit, a long solid rod used to hold food while it is being cooked over a fire in a fireplace or over a campfire, or roasted in an oven. Spit-roasting typically involves the use of indirect heat, which usually cooks foods at a lower temperature compared to other roasting methods that use direct heat. When cooking meats, the nature of the food constantly revolving on a spit also creates a self- basting process. Spit roasting dates back to ancient times, and spit-roasted fowl and game "was common in ancient societies".
