We call it Beer Butt chicken here.

[wingspar]

Spray beer can with non-stick cooking spray. Put chicken on top of beer and set on grill using indirect heat for 1 hour.

 

I’m having a hard time trying to picture a can of beer (open I hope) on top of a grill with a chicken balanced on top of it. Next time you cook that, you’ll have to post back with a photo of the chicken cooking.

Vegetable Oil

Non-stick Cooking Spray

 

Dry Spice Rub

2 tablespoons, ground cumin

2 tablespoons, curry powder

2 tablespoons, chili powder

1 tablespoon, ground allspice

1 tablespoon, ground black pepper

1 teaspoon, ground cinnamon

 

Wet Spice Rub

1/2 teaspoon, ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon, chili powder

1/2 teaspoon, paprika

1/2 teaspoon, ground coriander

1 tablespoon, fresh orange juice

1 1/2 teaspoons, fresh lime juice

1 1/2 teaspoons, good olive oil

1 small clove, garlic - minced very fine

1 tablespoon, minced cilantro leaves

OPTIONAL: 1/2 teaspoon, cayenne pepper (adds spicy heat)

 

Rinse chicken and remove gizzard, neck, etc. Sprinkle the chicken, inside and out, heavily with seasonings. Spray beer can with non-stick cooking spray. Put chicken on top of beer and set on grill using indirect heat for 1 hour. Rub on some vegetable oil and finish cooking until browned all over (an additional 20 - 30 minutes), AND juices run clear. Total time on the grill is about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Depending on your temperature on your grill.

 

Comments:

Using a 2 burner gas grill have one side burning on high and the other side not burning and put the chicken on the cold side to cook. On a charcoal grill slide the hot coals to one side and put chick on the cold side.

 

Tip: To help chicken stand up and cut down on fire flare ups and clean up.Place beer can with chicken on a disposable pie pan.

Do you at least tie the bird to the big round base so it doesn’t fall over backwards, or just lean it up against the beer?

 

Sounds like an interesting recipe, and orange juice might be another option for beer. I remember stuffing a pig with oranges and onions once. Yummy..... Didn’t taste like chicken either.

Wingspar -

 

1. An open can of beer is inserted down into the center of the stand.

 

2. Spraying the can + stand with non-stick spray is a good idea.

 

3. The Chicken is slid down OVER the stand/can, so it stands upright! (the can is inside the chicken)

Well, now that makes sense, and for the first time, spraying the beer can with non-stick spray makes sense too. This photo makes it look like the chicken is on the outside of the can, and will fall over backwards.

I have heard of people using soda, like coke, instead of beer so that is another option.
