rotate, drip

I read from yesterday's newpaper an article which begins with the following sentence:

After rotating, dripping and tempting more and more shoppers in the 1990s, rotisserie chicken seems to be losing its appeal. Locally, though, grocers and processors say it isn't so.

Could someone tell me what rotating and dripping mean here.

tks a lot.

P.S. this article is titled "Fowl falloff?"

It's the way the chicken is roasted on a rotisserie : an oven or broiler equipped with a rotating spit on which meat cooks as it turns . As it cooks, juices drip from the carcass.
