Rod at a pig roast crossword clue

52 Across · WSJ Crossword, July 24, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer
SPIT
SPIT (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Rod at a pig roast” is SPIT. It appears as 52 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 24, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “It All Adds Up” by Gary Larson & Amy Ensz, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 8, column 18 of the 21×21 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with S and ends with T, and contains 1 vowel and 3 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
