The BEST roasted chicken...

Insert a half can of beer into this contraption, shove it up the birds butt and throw it on the grill. I got mine about 2 years ago from the sporting goods store I worked at and use it every time I want chicken.

Beer Can chicken is the best. I have been doing it for a while now. I always said that I wished they had some sort of rack so it was not so hard to get the chicken to stay on the can. Well shit, I guess I missed on another opportunity to make my millions.

I've seen that thing in Cabela's catalog. It looks really cool.

It really does work well. You can sub any type of thing in an empty can, too. The wife likes orange juice. We've tried apple, orange, (both pretty good), Coke...the best is still beer. A half can of Bud Heavy with a tablespoon of crushed garlic in the can is about the best it can get.
And Budweiser, Coors, Miller Hi-Life seem to work the best for us. I don't often drink this kind of beer (prefer the Hefe's and Belgian style) but it seems to cook into the bird the best.

All this talk about it has decided me on what I'll be cooking for dinner (plus it's a good excuse to buy more beer!)

OMG, this is the first time that I have heard of this, can't wait for the summer, new party trick. Does this work in the oven?

sure does, super easy and tasty.
Another way to do it is to use a angle food cake pan, the one with the hollow tube in the middle. If you set the bottom over a pan it just covers, sort of like a lid, then pour any liquid into the lower pan,beer, wine, etc, you can then put the chicken on so the body cavity slides down over the tube thing. This way you can use anything, including tea. I have found apple cider works magic on chicken.
