Barbecued Beer Chicken - Beer Can
- 12 cup finely chopped green onion
- 13 cup Dijon mustard (I use honey Dijon)
- 13 cup soy sauce
- 14 cup lemon juice
- 1 12 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 12 cups beer, divided (I use Honey Brown)
- 1 (3 1/2-4 lb) roasting chickens
- To make the marinade:.
- in a small bowl, whisk together the marinade with 1 cup of the beer.
- Remove the giblets and any excess fat from the chicken.
- Rinse the chicken under cold water.
- Place the chicken in a large, resealable plastic bag or large bowl, cover with the marinade, and refrigerate for about four hours, turning occasionally.
- Heat the grill to medium, about 350 to 400 degrees farenheit.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and wipe off the chunks of onion and garlic with paper toweling.
- I use a special roaster that we bought with the grill, but you can use a beer can with a few holes punched in it.
- Whichever you use, should have about a half-cup of beer in it.
- Insert the roaster into the body cavity of the chicken, and set it upright onto the heated grill.
- Grill about an hour.
- (My special roaster has a container underneath to catch the drippings, and I baste the chicken about every 15 minutes with them.
- ).
- Remove from the grill, let rest a few minutes, and either quarter or carve.
- Enjoy!
