Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken
- 1 can lager or beer
- 1/4 cup coarse salt
- 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup sweet paprika
- 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
- Cooking or olive oil
Preparation
Put the salt, brown sugar, paprika, and pepper in a small bowl and stir to mix. (Your fingers actually work better for mixing the rub than a spoon or whisk does). Rub the chicken lightly with a thin layer of oil both inside and out. Sprinkle your barbeque mix over the chicken, rubbing to ensure an even covering of the spice. Insert the can into the bird’s cavity and transfer the bird-on-a-can to your Beerbird grid.
