Any Time is Grillin Time

I don't have a smoker, but I have a Showtime Rotisserie Platinum. I'm going to do a practice run in a week or so, and then prepare a USDA Prime prime rib on it for Christmas. The Darling Bride is saying that the heat will cook off any juices we could use for the au jus. Any suggestions, other than simply use the oven?
If there is room below your roast, would a disposable shallow pan work to catch the drippings?

Some rotisseries have the ability to pace a "catch pan" under the meat.
 
The Showtime has a "grease pan" to catch the fat that would drip off poultry... but I've yet to try something like a prime rib on it. I'll have to let you know how it works out.

You don't need the rotisserie for a rib roast (prime rib), I cook mine in the oven all the time. Rosemary, thyme, garlic, and butter to coat the whole thing. Start if it 500 degrees for 15 minutes, then 325 until the center reaches 110-115 (lower side for rare, upper side for medium rare) and let it rest. It will come to temp (5-10 degrees warmer) as it rests.

That said, you can cook some seriously good food in one of those rotisseries. I ran one (well, three as they died) for years.
