SMOKED BEER CAN CHICKEN | POULTRY RECIPES | WEBER GRILLS



Smoked Beer Can Chicken | Poultry Recipes | Weber Grills image

Blanketing a chicken with salt and refrigerating it for a couple of hours before grilling will draw out some moisture and strengthen the chicken flavors. (Don't worry, the salt is rinsed off.)

Provided by Jamie Purviance

Categories     Poultry

Total Time 1 hours 40 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours 30 minutes

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 whole chicken, 4 to 5 pounds
¼ cup/45 grams kosher salt
2 teaspoons granulated onion
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
1 teaspoon prepared chili powder
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 can (12 fluid ounces) lager or other beer, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Remove and discard the neck, giblets, and any excess fat from the chicken. Sprinkle the salt over the entire surface and inside the cavity of the chicken, covering it all like a light blanket of snow. Cover the chicken with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1½ to 2 hours.
  • Soak the wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl mix the rub ingredients.
  • Rinse the chicken inside and outside with cold water. Gently pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season the chicken all over with the rub. Fold the wing tips behind the chicken’s back.
  • Prepare the grill for indirect cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F).
  • Open the beer can and pour out about half the beer. Using a church key–style can opener, make two more holes in the top of the can. Place the beer can on a solid surface. Plunk the chicken cavity over the beer can.
  • Drain and add the wood chips to the charcoal or to the smoker box of a gas grill, following manufacturer’s instructions, and close the lid. When the wood begins to smoke, transfer the bird-on-a-can to the grill, balancing the bird on its two legs and the can, like a tripod. Grill over indirect medium heat, with the lid closed, until the juices run clear and the internal temperature registers 160° to 165°F in the thickest part of the thigh (not touching the bone), 1¼ to 1½ hours.
  • Using tongs, grasp the bird and slide a sturdy, wide spatula under the beer can. Carefully transfer it in an upright position to a platter and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes (the internal temperature will rise a few degrees during this time). Using tongs to hold the chicken and paper towels to hold the can, give the chicken a little twist to loosen the can before trying to remove it. Carefully lift the chicken off the beer can, keeping the can upright to prevent the hot beer from spilling (the beer will be very hot). Discard the beer. Cut the chicken into serving pieces as desired. Serve warm.

This is the best chicken that I have ever had! I purchased a Big Green Egg Smoker and was looking for new recipes and discovered this. I found the recipe on the website The Smoker King (smokerking.com). I think the key part of this recipe is the injection. It makes the chicken so tender and juicy. The chicken is injected with a butter mixture. Leave it to me to find the only unhealthy recipe for chicken on the internet!
