Beer Can Barbecue Chicken Recipe

A whole chicken cooked in a beer can is a delicious and flavorful way to cook it. The beer can keeps the chicken moist and adds a subtle flavor while it cooks. To give the chicken a smoky and tangy flavor, this recipe calls for a homemade spice rub and barbecue sauce.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon black pepper
• 1 litre of beer
• 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 chicken, whole

Time Needed

• Prep Time: 15 minutes
• Cook Time: 1 hour, 15 minutes
• Total Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes

Instructions

• Preheat the grill to medium-high.
• Remove and discard the chicken's giblets and neck.
• Rub olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika on the chicken.
• Pour about 1/4 cup of beer from the can.
• Lower the chicken onto the beer can, so that the can is inside the chicken's cavity.
• Cover the grill and place the chicken, standing up on the can, on the grates.
• Grill the chicken for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
