"Roast Preacher"

Can anybody explain what a roast preacher means?

Is that a preacher who is incapable of giving good sermons and does a poor job at ministering to his congregation?

Thanks so much for your time and help!

Sincerely,

Tony

Give us some context, please, Tony. From the on-line references, it seems to refer to a situation in which churchgoers return home from Sunday service to complain about their clergyman and/or his sermon over lunch.
