Blog Beer Can BBQ Chicken

This recipe takes 1 hour to cook but just place it on the BBQ and forget about it!
So effortless, you can literally feed an army! Just place the quantity of chickens on the grill and let it cook for one hour! This is a great recipe if you have other foods to prepare cutting back checking the BBQ frequently.
Your result - super moist chicken!

Ingredients
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp dried thyme leaves
1 whole chicken (4lb/1.8kg)
1 can (355 ml) beer
1/2 cup BBQ sauce

Directions
Heat BBQ to medium-high heat.
Mix first 5 ingredients, rub onto chicken.
Open beer ban, discard half the beer (Ya right! But seriously you only need half the beer).
Place can on work surface, lower chicken over can, inserting can into tail end of chicken. Stand chicken on BBQ grate, using the legs to help chicken stand upright. (Can should remain in chicken on BBQ. Turn off burners directly below chicken.
Grill chicken 1 hour, brush with sauce. Grill 15 minutes or until chicken is done (170 degrees), brushing frequently with remaining sauce. Remove from BBQ, cover loosely with foil. Let stand 10 minutes before removing chicken from can and carving chicken. Discard any beer remaining in can.

When grilling over indirect heat, the food is not cooked over the heat source. The covered BBQ then acts like an oven, so there is no need to turn the food. Use this grilling method for foods that require at least 25 minutes of grilling time or foods that are so delicate that direct exposure to the heat source would dry them out, such as roasts, whole chicken, thick steaks, ribs or delicate fish fillets.
