I've been enjoying this method of preparing chicken for years now. I have yet to find anyone not like it...what's not to like about moist chicken with crispy skin?
You'll need 1 whole chicken, a can of beer, a beer can chicken stand, an aluminum tray (for drippings), seasonings.
Light your BBQ and only have 1 burner lit with the lid closed and adjust the dial so that you get a BBQ temperature of approx/ 350F.
(note: even though there's an ice tea can in the photo, there's beer in there...I only had beer in a bottle at the time).
1) Rinse and pat-dry your bird. Season with garlic powder, black pepper and Butcher's Choice Chicken Seasoning.
2) Open your can of beer, drink a 1/3 of & place into the stand. Insert any aromatic you like into the beer (I like a spring of Rosemary).
3) Put the chicken, stand and tray in the side of the BBQ that's not lit. Close your BBQ and allow the chicken to roast for about 90 minutes. Check the chicken every-so often in case of BBQ hot spots and rotate the bird to roast & colour evenly. Allow your chicken to rest for 15 minutes before carving and serve.
4) Eat chicken with your hands!
