Last week I was with my boss and he mentioned beer can chicken. I hadn't made some in quite a while and decided that an old recipe we had needed to be dusted off and used again. This was from an old Food Network show called "Ham on the street". It is delicious.
Wife prepping the birds. 2-6lb Costco broilers
3/4 of the way through the cook. Had pecan wood on for smoke and Leinenkugels Original for beer.
Result! If you look at the wing on the far right you can see it is starting to separate. As soon as I put my phone down that wing was laying next to the bird. It was simply melt in your mouth chicken. I've never had chicken so tender and juicy, ever. I did not brine these at all. I had read that the beer can doesn't add much in the way of moisture. You could have fooled me. My wife wants this every week now!
