Beer Can Chicken

 There is nothing special about this post, just one of the best ways you can cook a chicken - plain and simple.  Here's how to cook a beer can chicken:

 

Buy a whole chicken and a beer can set up (I bought mine at publix).  Season the chicken inside and out.  I chose to use Lawry's sweet basil, citrus, garlic rub bought from Sam's Club.  Crack open a beer can and drink a sip, pinch a little seasoning into the can so it starts to foam.  Put the chicken over the beer can and throw it on the grill.  I cook this between 350-400 degrees on the BGE until the thickest part of the breast reaches 165-170 degrees.

 

 

Here is the finished product after about 45 - 60 minutes.  No one has every said anything bad about my beer can chicken!  It's also nice to have white & dark meat, legs, thighs, breasts, and wings to please everyone.
