INSTRUCTIONS

Beer Can Chicken

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (375°F).

2. Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Rub olive oil all over the chicken, then season with BBQ rub, salt, and pepper.

3. Insert fresh herbs and lemon halves into the cavity of the chicken.

4. Open the can of beer and drink or discard half. Place the can upright on a sturdy surface, and carefully lower the chicken onto the can so that the can fits into the cavity.

5. Place the chicken (standing up on the beer can) on the grill using indirect heat. Close the grill lid and cook for about 1.5-2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F in the thickest part of the thigh.

6. Carefully remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.
