Beer Can Chicken

Serves: 4

Ingredients
1 whole chicken (about 4 pounds)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons of your favorite dry spice rub
1 can beer

For the rub:
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Method
In a small bowl combine the rub ingredients.

Remove the neck and giblets from the chicken and discard them. Rinse the chicken inside and out, and pat dry with paper towels. Rub the chicken lightly with oil then rub the inside and out with salt, pepper and the dry rub mix. Marinate at least two hours, preferably overnight.

Open the beer can and empty out half of the beer. Place the beer can on a solid surface. Grabbing a chicken leg in each hand, place the bird cavity over the beer can. Straighten it out so it is solidly in place.

Heat your the grill to medium high heat.

Transfer the bird-on-a-can to your grill and place in the center of one of the grates, balancing the bird on its 2 legs and the can like a tripod. Turn off the burner that the chicken is sitting over, so it gets only indirect heat. If using coals, place the bird in an area without coals directly below it.

Cook the chicken over medium-high, indirect heat, with the grill cover on, for approximately 1 1/4 hours or until the internal temperature registers 165ºF in the breast area and 180ºF in the thigh, or until the thigh juice runs clear when stabbed with a sharp knife.

Remove the chicken from the grill very carefully, wearing barbecue gloves and it let rest for 10 minutes before carving. Be careful that you don't spill the beer - it's hot!

Discard the beer as it may contain bacteria from the chicken.
