I don't think I will EVER EVER cook a whole chicken any other way ever again.. I don't have a recipe since my husband is the one who made it today but my gooodness! where has this been all my life.
 
Well, I suggest you get the recipe!!!! Seriously. The nerve. Posting about yumminess and then NOT hooking us up. :thumbdown:

You are lucky I adore you! (but please get the recipe!) :thumbup:
 
Where's the recipe!!! How am I supposed to convince my DH to do this without the recipe??
 
Yes! Post the recipe, I think something with beer in it may be the only way I can get my dh to cook something other than macaroni LOL :D
 
If I recall, the recipe is basically "pop open a can of beer, stick inside chicken, cook", LOL!
I'm mostly seen them done on a grill while "standing up". You don't pour the beer in, you stick the whole can up there.
 
yep thats basically it just like col said - he put some spices etc on the chicken and in the can but yea he cut the can in half stuck it on the bbq for 1.5 hours and dinner was done. seriously you guys have to try it.

here is a recipe that i found: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/the-surreal-gourmet/beer-can-chickenecipe/index.html

I'm telling you guys. best chicken ever.

we used bud light lime beer - haha not sure if that makes a difference in the flavor?
 
IDK. I don't like beer at ALL (can't get past the smell enough to take more than a sip or two). Does it taste beer-y? If so, I'd have to pass.

Click to expand...

we make beer brats all the time (only way to make them LOL) and I'm not a fan of the taste either and you definitely can't taste the beer


also you can make it with soda too... I've heard Dr. Pepper is really yummy
 
something about the act of shoving a whole beer can up a chicken's butt is p0rn0graph!c lol, that being said, I've heard this recipe is yum :)
 
I just emailed this recipe to my husband, I'm hoping he tries it out! (he's the resident BBQer at our house) Thanks for the tip!
 
I HATE HATE HATE beer but this is the BEST way to do a chicken on the grill. i LOVE it. you can't taste the beer at all. really, i promise. now i wish i had a full chicken to do it!
 
I love doing chicken this way. Haven't done it in years but it's so good!

I'm gonna have to try the pop version...although violating a can of dr pepper or coca cola will break my heart but it's all for the good of the chicken.
