Dancing Chicken
1 (3 pound) whole frying chicken
1 can of beer
Seasoning, to taste
Wash bird and remove giblet sack from inside bird. Season skin to
taste. Open beer can and place in cavity of bird, open side up.
On a charcoal grill with one layer of BLAZING hot coals, place bird
on rack, balancing on the beer can to where bird appears to be
standing up.
Close top of grill Set vents on top to 20% open. Forget the chicken
for 1 1/2 hours and open lid. Birds should be well browned or it may
take another 15 minutes.
Wearing gloves, remove the birds from grill and take the beer can
out. Place the birds on a serving dish. It won't take much carving
because the meat will literally fall off the bone. Some of the beer
cans will be empty, some will have some brew in them.
Variation
Using an empty beer or soda can, wash clean inside and use red or
white wine or anything you choose instead of beer. |
