beer can chicken?

I'm thinking this might be supper.  I have a cousin coming to spend the evening with us as he drives through the state.  I do not want to bake anything.  I've never made it, so other than giving the chicken a beer enema/stand, what sort of "rub"/spices do you coat him in?  And how long does it normally take to cook?  what grill heat do you use?  Thanks!

Re: beer can chicken?

  • I usually do it over medium heat and it takes about 40ish mins depending on the size of the chicken. I usually spray a little olive oil/cooking spray on the skin and shake some bbq rub or rosemary, garlic, salt/pepper.. really whatever you want.. Oh and drink or pour out about 1/3 of the beer before you stuff him with it..

  • We do exactly as LittleBug - I used a BBQ rub from Penzey's.  I also read that you can add some of the rub/spice to the beer and it helps to distribute the flavor while cooking. 

    We just did this for the first time a couple weeks ago and I was very impressed at how good the chicken was!
