Beer Can Chicken Tips
- For a different flavor, try using soft drinks, fruit juices or wine in place of the beer.
- Create a more concentrated flavor from your rub by allowing the chicken to set for 4 hours or overnight with the rub on it. Be sure to cover and refrigerate it while it sits.
- Use your favorite marinade on the chicken before grilling.
- Don't have a grill? The beer can chicken can be roasted in the oven rather than on a grill if you don't have one available. It will be still be moist and delicious but it won't have the great grilled flavor.
- To increase the flavor of the beer, add it as an ingredient in a marinade or if you are going to barbecue the beer can chicken, add some beer to the sauce.
- Because of the steam created when using the beer can method to cook the chicken, you generally do not need to baste the chicken as it cooks. Although basting is not necessary to keep the chicken moist, you can add special flavoring by basting if desired. Be careful if basting so that you do not knock the chicken over when applying it.
