night while the meat roasts. It is made out of 3/8" stainless steel.

1963 (the ORIGINAL Roast!)
Ted Smith, Dave Lerner, Charles Frasier, Michael Potash and Chester Schneider at the first ever courtyard roast. It was never just a BBQ! However it may not have been named Steer Roast until 1964. The spit was made of rebar "liberated" from the Green Building. See p5 of this issue of the MIT student newspaper for a writeup on the original 1963 Roast! |
