Beer Can Chicken Recipe |
Yes! Beer can chicken.... I bought one for my Dad, and he left it setting in a cabinet for over a year. I asked about it one day, and he said he had never tried it, so I invited him and Mom over for dinner to show him what it does.
Recipes vary, but the real critical ingredient when grilling is wood. Good 'ol oak, with a few pieces of mesquite mixed in for taste once you have a good bed of coals from the oak. Once you have a good bed of coals you want to add a piece of mesquite and/or oak to get the desired amount of smoke for taste.
Good eatin!
