LOL... just remembered a suckling I did on a camping trip... just to be an obnoxious jerk, we took a suckling on a canoe trip down the Saco up in Maine (for anyone not from NE, the Saco is basically a floating frat party... EVERYONE is drinkin' their faces off, floating down the river and as the day wears on, people pull over, set up camps, camp for the night and then float down the rest of the way in the morning).
I took two heavy duty car batteries, a power inverter, a BBQ spit and hooked them all up, spinning a suckling over a camp fire. People kept floating by our beach-camp with jaws dropped. It was damn good eats too.
I would go with the "pit method" like I described through... shouldn't be too hard with a suckling. Just need a shovel, a bunch of rocks from the camp site and some sort of small lid.
