Damn, that deer meat looks good! You have to know what you're doing to pull that one off. If I'm ever in West Virginia, I'll definitely try that pit BBQ.

More years than I care to remember ago, I dated a young lady whose family were in part Pennsylvania Dutch and off the reservation, so to speak. I became aware of and attended the Kuntztown (Amish?)Fair with her. What I remember from that experience, besides thoroughly enjoying myself, and paying $1 for a Bud was the Amish/Dutch guy cooking a whole cow on a spit and watching him bast it. My inner carnivore leaped to surface and I was ready for a plate, but the cow wasn't done yet. My companion seemed somewhat repulsed by the sight, but it looked damn good to moi. However, I don't remember the chief using any mechanical device to rotate the steer on the spit (30+ years ago), because my attention was on the beef.
