It's the epitome of outdoor cooking indulgence, perfect for lazy summer afternoons or festive gatherings with friends and family.
The beauty of beer can chicken lies in its simplicity. With just a few basic ingredients and minimal prep work, you can achieve a dish that's guaranteed to impress.
INGREDIENTS
whole chicken
olive oil
cluckalicious poultry seasoning
all purpose rub
tin foil
The details….
Discard giblets and neck and rinse the chicken. Pat dry with paper towels. Lather the chicken up with olive oil and seasonings. We used our favorite cluckalicious poultry seasoning and our OG Killer Hogs AP rub.
Once it is seasoned, crack open a can of beer and sit your chicken on it. You can also use a stand and pour beer into the stand holder. Place the chicken on the center of your grill, add a temperature probe and shut the lid. Grill for 60-90 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken hits 170 degrees. Take the chicken off, wrap it in tinfoil and let it rest for 10 minutes. Take out, cut and enjoy!
Fire up the grill, crack open a cold one, and get ready to elevate your outdoor cooking game with a whole beer can chicken. With its simple yet impressive technique and mouthwatering results, it's sure to become a staple in your grilling repertoire. Just be prepared – once you've tasted the juicy perfection of beer can chicken, you may never want to cook chicken any other way again
