BBQ Chicken With Beer Recipe | Beer Butt Chicken | | | | | | This is the best chicken you will ever have! Cooked outside on a grill as to roast. No grill? No problem! Just use the lowest rack in your oven, preheated to 375* and roast for 1 hour to 1 hour 15 min. , or until juices run clear. | | | | 1 | | whole chicken | | | 12 oz | | beer (one can of any type of beer) | | | 2 Tbs | | 2 cloves garlic, minced | | | 2 Tbs | | honey | | | 2 Tbs | | ground cumin seed | | | 2 Tbs | | chili powder | | | 1 Tbs | | freshly ground black pepper | | | 1 Tbs | | ground allspice | | | 1 tsp | | cinnamon | | | | | | | 1 | Prepare a "marinade" to soak the whole chicken in. Bring 2 qt of water to a boil in a large pan, add the minced garlic and honey. Boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely. | | 2 | Rinse your chicken and place it in a container large enough to accommodate the chicken and most of the marinade liquid. Pour cooled marinade over the chicken and refrigerate for 1-2 hours. | | 3 | While the chicken is soaking, mix all the spices together to make a rub for the beer butt chicken. | | 4 | Preheat your grill. | | 5 | Pat the chicken dry, and then rub in the spice rub all over, and rub some of the spice mix under the skin, too. | | 6 | Open the beer and empty out about 1/4 cup. Using a church-key type can opener, punch several more holes in the top. | | 7 | Slide the whole chicken over the can so that the drumsticks reach down to the bottom of the can and the chicken will stand upright on the can. | | 8 | Place the chicken on the can, standing up on the cool part of the grill. Grill-roast until the chicken is done, and has reached 170* using a meat thermometer placed in the inner thigh. This should take somewhere between 70 and 90 minutes. | | 9 | Using potholders, transfer the cooked chicken, can and all, to a platter to rest for 15 minutes. | | 10 | Carefully lift the chicken off the can and discard the can. Carve the chicken and serve. | | | | | Servings: 4 | | | | Nutrition Facts | | Serving size: 1 serving | | Percent daily values based on a 2000 calorie diet. | | Nutrition information calculated from recipe ingredients. | | The following ingredients were not linked to the ingredient database and were not included in the nutrition information: | | beer (one can of any type of beer) | | cinnamon | | | | | | | | | Amount Per Serving | | | | | Calories | | 127.87 | | | Calories From Fat (14%) | | 17.42 | | | | | % Daily Value | | Total Fat 2.21g | | 3% | | | Saturated Fat 0.41g | | 2% | | | Cholesterol 34.22mg | | 11% | | | Sodium 83.54mg | | 3% | | | Potassium 317.20mg | | 9% | | | Carbohydrates 14.15g | | 5% | | | Dietary Fiber 2.37g | | 9% | | | Sugar 8.97g | | | | | Sugar Alcohols 0.00g | | | | | Net Carbohydrates 11.78g | | | | | Protein 14.92g | | 30% | | | | | | | | | | | | |
