Directions
Beer Can Chicken
- Preheat grill or smoker to 275°F.
- Remove giblet packet for another use.
- Season the whole chicken inside and outside thoroughly.
- Position the chicken sitting upright over the beer* can (vertically) in a cast iron pan so that the tips of the drumsticks touch the bottom of the pan.
- Fold the wing tips and tuck them behind the back so that everything cooks evenly.
- Place the pan of chicken in the smoker and cook until the chicken breast and thickest part of the thigh reaches 165°F. (Should take a few hours!)
- Remove chicken from smoker and let rest for 10-15 minutes or until cool enough to pull the meat from the bones.
*You can substitute the can of beer for wine, water or chicken broth. (Just about any liquid will work!)
