As far as rotisserie over gas it wont be as good as charcoal but it will be fine


My biggest concern is let's say a chicken for example, is the juice/ fat not going to drip on the fire and cause major flare ups? I don't really care about the smoke flavor as much as cooking it over direct heat?

Most rotisserie set ups have the "heat" coming from an angle or the rear of the cooker, so the juice/ fat drips down into something other than the fire.

I'm looking to do things like wild game roasts, chickens, etc.

Yeah if you don't have a dedicated rear mounted rotisserie burner or multiple burners that you can configure for indirect heat, then you'd want to have the burners on low and a drip pan directly underneath. There's also the clearance from the spit to the grill grate to consider. You may have to remove the grate altogether if the clearance isn't high enough - thus eliminating somewhere to put the drip pan and likely causing flare-ups, which should def be avoided.

Here's a good thread about it: LINK

I have an infrared grill and used grill mats. No flareups.
