Beer Can Chicken
Description:
Saucy and flavorful, this easy recipe for a barbecue classic, Beer Can Chicken,
will have everyone raving about this tender and moist grill favorite!
If you've never cooked like this before, you have to give it a try.
We really enjoyed this, It came out very moist and the sauce was delicious!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1 can beer (12-ounce), half removed
1 tablespoon dried basil
2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 whole chicken (3 to 3.5 pounds)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Add the barbecue sauce to the half-full can of beer.
2. In a small bowl, combine the basil, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; mix well and rub evenly over the chicken.
3. Place the cavity of the chicken over the beer can so that the chicken is sitting on the can then place the can (with the chicken on it) on the rack in the center of the grill. Cover the grill and cook for 1 to 1-1/4 hours, or until no pink remains in the chicken and its juices run clear.
4. Pour the remaining sauce from the can into a bowl, and serve with the chicken.
Note:
This can be made with nonalcoholic beer or, for a different flavor,
you could use a half-filled can of lemonade and rub the chicken with lemon-pepper seasoning.
Cooking time will vary depending on the grill used.
Serves: 4
