| This is a classic and just like the conversation will be going on about the pork tenderloin and "What is that wrapped in", the tailgaters will be talking about this one also. Rinse the bird off, pat dry and sprinkle the garlic salt, pepper and whatever else is within arms reach - do this inside as well as outside the bird. Lay down some aluminum foil on your grates which will prevent flare ups plus make it a bit easier to clean up. Open up your favorite beer, take a ceremonial sip and place the open end of the beer can into the cavity of the chicken. I didn't think I had to say that but you never know how many beers the cook has
consumed at this point! If you're using a charcoal grill, just place the bird in the middle of the grill over evenly spread white ashes. With gas, turn one burner on at medium heat and place your friend over the burner that is turned off. Cover your grill and just let it go, just let it go (almost like that line from one of the top 10 movies of all time - Happy Gilmore - just tap it in, tap, tap, tap, just tap it in!) and the heat from the grill will make the beer start to boil, cooking the chicken from the inside out. When all done and said, the bird will be all but falling apart and that deserves a yeah baby! |
