Actually, I have the same question about flare-ups - but in a gas
grill. How would I go about it? I don't want to extinguish the
gaslights by dousing them with water!

Unless you take the garden hose to it you won't extinguish the burner
on a gas grill. You might extinguish a small section of a burner for a
momment, but so does the wind.

Ain't any of yoose ever heard of indirect heat... move the food to a
cooler spot/move the coals further from the food -- lower the gas or
turn off a part of the gas burners... wtf is so difficult? duh

Just sprinkle some water on the orange flames from the fat. Not too much. The
gas will keep burning. If a small section of the gas flame is doused it will be
immediately re-ignited but any nearby flame.

Mole the food to another spot and let it burn out. Keep the lid open while
doing that so it does not smoke up the food.
You can eliminate flare ups on fatty foods by using indirect heat. Burner
on one side, food on the other.

We have natural gas grill as opposed to propane gas grill. A light
spritzing of water shouldn't put out the gasolights but it adds no
flavour. I prefer beer if grilling poultry for extinguishing flare-ups.
For other meats, we turn the burners down a little and move the meats
around.
