Classic Beer Can Chicken Over a Wood Fire

Ingredients

• 1 4-5 Lbs. Whole Chicken

• 1/2 Cup Dry Chicken Rub

• 1 Can Beer of Choice

Steps

1. Preheat the grill until it reaches 450F with the flame diffuser closed.

2. Pour out half the beer into your mouth, and then shove the open can where the sun doesn't shine in the chicken. Push it down there, and use the legs as a tripod to hold it up.

3. Grill until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F.

4. Carefully remove the chicken from the grill and let rest for 15 minutes. Cut and serve!

Optional - For additional flavor and to prevent drying, add an additional beer into the flavor diffuser pan.
