Directions: |
Directions:Combine all the rub ingredients in a small bowl.
Rinse the chicken in cold water and pat dry.
Brush all over with the vegetable oil and season in and out with the rub.
Open the beer and pour off about 1/2 (enjoy the other 1/2!).
Put the rest of the rub in the beer can and fit the chicken over the can.
Put the chicken in an oven-safe container, to catch the juices.
Carefully balance the bird on its two legs and the can.
Cook on grill, keeping upright, over indirect medium heat until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 170° in the breast and 180° in the thickest part of the thigh about 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours.
Let the chicken rest a few minutes before removing it from the can.
Cut into serving pieces and enjoy.
May also be cooked in 350° oven.
Discard beer and whatever juices collect in the baking pan. |
