One having a turn at a roast? (4)

I believe the answer is:

spit

(Other definitions for spit that I've seen before include "Eject saliva - roasting rod" , "Narrow strip of land projecting into the sea" , "Narrow peninsula" , "issue with some violence" , "Thin rod; saliva" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
