Beer Can Chicken | Grilled Chicken Recipe

hey looking to spice up that chicken on the grill i'm talking about beer can chicken that just sets up there just right you might know it as drunken chicken but we're bringing out the best flavors of ever and we're using a plum chipotle glaze right there at the end that is so tender so good we the chickens are loading up they are come on i'm going to the hen house [Music] oh time started all the cooks out there drinking he is again ain't gonna be worth nothing that's what they used to sell number wagons years ago cause a cook could get about a half toasted sometime breakfast might start at one instead of when it's supposed to but now folks we don't be drinking what are we talking about beer can chicken with a special plunge of poatly glaze that goes on there oh my gosh you're gonna run to the hen house or the neighbor's yard or something and you're gonna steal every chicken they got because this is going to bring you out the most flavor and guess what we are going to go with something you might not know about we're going to use some fogo as you know but we're going to use some eucalyptus hardwood today we're going to go ahead and get this beer can all ready the chicken is over in the little houndhouse well there you see it the yard bird jumped over the fence run right over here and said pick me i am a good 6.2 ounce pound of chicken wonderfulness and folks that's what i'm talking about make sure your chicken is thawed out well make sure that you have searched that body caddy in there to make sure that the gizzard liver neck heart any of them other things might not be in there we need all of that out of there out of the way we do and while we just letting them sit there so peaceful like let's go ahead and mix up a rub that we're going to put on there and we're starting with the mesquite seasoning where can you get it www.kemprollings.com yes you can a little bit of ground mustard uh-huh how much the exact amount is in this jar i can tell by much as it weighs so we're going to dump it right on in there because i know it was right a little chili powder you didn't see that coming did you and there's a little breeze so we may not get it all in there today but we're gonna get most of it a little bit of garlic powder come on oh and that's trying to it's trying to blow away it might have got on sadie over i don't know for sure a little coarse ground black pepper which is about that much let's give it a mixing with our hands and while that's just setting our mind in its own business folks i need you to make sure that you pat that chicken dry what does that do when you dry this off and you put olive oil on there if it was wet it would just beat up like water on a duck's back and roll off so this is going to help the seasoning adhere to the poultry we're going to grease it a little with some olive oil just pour you a little smidgen on there i like to give it a little in here too make sure you get everybody greased up well go ahead and let's turn it over give it a little more greasing then i want you to just get that rub and just go to sprinkling it on there we're going to give it a little pat and a little rubbing just to make sure it all stays where it's supposed to now they make a holder for this beer can chicken that you can get off amazon there'll be a little link there i'm not going to use one but i'm going to show it to you because a lot of times when you putting a chicken on one of these and setting him somewhere he'd be doing this because the chicken get drunk it's just a little holder that holds a can but we're going to try our luck today without it i need you to play that song johnny bush and the bandolero sings so many years ago what is it shannon papa top again i think i'll have another round set them up my friend now this needs to be warm just a warm lukewarm beer room temperature beer and i need you to drain about half of it mage no so let me just pour it right over here in the sink i guess it'll be a good place for it mage half of it now when we was doing this as a pre-arranged cooking agreement me and shan that means you practice ahead of time i think that's what that means uh i tried with a miller lite cruise light a mountain dew i really couldn't taste the difference anywhere so i really gonna go back to the the beer the light beer because time you mix the herb spices in there i think it gives a little more to it because of the effervescent essential factors that it has in it yes it has so let me see if i can get this magical tool to work if not this is in the way i can already tell you we'll do something else whoa i don't feel like that's working neither shin pause you're gonna have to do it like chop style when you just took a knife i bet yeah but i ain't got one out here [Music] i am back remember on chops they took the can openers away shan remember that so many years ago and i reached over and got me a knife and just cut the top out of the canyon what did that chef say beside me i ain't ivor i wanna was a barbarian like you so he was the first one to go home yes he was so you might be thinking you're gonna get some metal shavings in there we're not drinking the beer huh it is a vessel now then i have a half a beer gotcha i'm gonna pour one more of dab out now we're exactly a half to that and folks if you got the fresh herbs i recommend them i do i don't have them with me my little local store don't carry them some rosemary and then we're gonna put some what what is this you think it's a magical concoct oh no it is some clove about four of them little clovies just drop them right down in there and then guess what there is time in my backyard so just drop him down in there make sure you get him going and then i want you to take a honking big garlic clove like this and right here you can chunk him in there whole but i like to do him just like this give him a mashing break him all in there and before we doing all this i think you all might have seen me mix up that marinade for that plum juice which if you ain't be gotten them wild plums i'm gonna give you a little secret here go to the store if they have plum jelly you can use that if they ain't got plum chili get you some peach preserves they work really well i tried that the other day on it and it is good too then some chipotle peppers and adobo sauce and some worcestershire sauce and some white brown sugar blend it blend it blend it i'm gonna blend it that's what you do to it when you're blending it give your beer a little shake take that chipotle stuff stick it in icebox where it can be chilling about an hour ahead because letting them flavors be in you can do this one or two ways folks now you can go ahead and turn this bird over and season him all over the front side of there and then just put him in the icebox let him chill about an hour because i need some of that seasoning to just get on there and love him but when you be picking that chicken up guess what some of that seasoning be staying on there so i like to just go ahead and put him on a beer can if you can find a level spot for him to set his little legs is crooked ta-da he's watching tv just as we go now now you got to be careful when you transport these i tell you that you hold them onto there and you make sure you don't spill him and when you turn him around to where you can season him do it slowly so let's get the rest of this seasoning on him so we can hold up chicken he's already drunk and the breeze is blowing so we're going to give him a little seasoning we are if he don't run off again now folks if you come up a little short and you think you need some more in spots that might have been hidden from when you didn't first see it hey sprinkle you something else on there i just want to make sure that everybody's got a protective coating of something to where we're good to go so have a spot in your fridge big enough for it to go folks let it chill about an hour then i need you to bring it out meet me back out here at the fire well now i'm not hot it isn't commenced to rain in it has and i'm covering the fowl i am because he sit in there and he got nice boxing oh she's so pretty she is

below you can click on that and get ten percent off this here grill you can we and they are a dandy rich and them do a great job they do but we'd be having us some fogo hardwood lump in there today eucalyptus yes it is probably one of the oldest hardwoods down there in the brazilian part of the world it is and i mean them brazilian steakhouses have been using it forever so i thought the other day i'm going to throw it on and some chicken and see what happens and ooh folks i thought it was so good that we're going to use it again today but to that we're going to mix a little bit of mesquite and a little bit of apple after it gets to going because i want to give this old chicken some good smoked bath we got her cranked all the way to the bottom indirect heat today so the coals are on one end bird goes on other you think she's gonna get wet shin go quick so you can't go real quick when you're carrying a beer can chicken so lift her up gingerly bring her right on over here we're going
