Iowanian Beer can Chicken
Easiest.
Take 1 whole chicken, baste with Italian dressing....season with Lemon Pepper, Insert 1 opened beer(spiked with flavor of choice) into bottom of chicken, cook around 325 until done...usually around 1.5 hrs.
My Favorite(with regards to Sec's turkey recipe)
make foil boat....slice apples like you would for a pie. put apple slices in foil with Brown Sugar and cinnemon to taste...fold and wait.
1 whole chicken.....Insert a few slices into chicken cavity(not too many, leave room for can or other holder)....Insert your choice of beer, or acidic juice...Apple juice works good).....Stuff Chicken neck over-full with apple slices......baste with Honey.
Put on grill at same heat as above, baste with honey every 15-20 minutes.
Last 15 minutes, put foil boat with remaining apples on grill....use as garnish very similar to baked apples...
my favorite Grill meal.
Tips I've picked up along the way(many from here, others from friends who competative grill/smoke)
1. If you place a disposable foil pan or cookie sheet with some water under bird...It will keep fire from burning legs
2. You can spice your beer/apple juice with things like Tobasco, Brandy.
3. I bought some ceramic things that hold beer/juice and have a wider base...keeping chicken from tipping over
