Drunken Fowl
After hearing about it for ages, I finally had to try my hand at beer can chicken...or rather souped-up speedy beer can chicken. In the interest of time, we roasted it in the oven and then finished it off on the grill with some BBQ sauce (no indirect grilling for this bird). The rumors are true...this method produces some of the moistest meat I've ever had. Add some fingerling potato salad and dinner is served. Chad and Nathan approved and I'm sure if we let Hobey have some, she'd approve too.

mmm. turbo chicken :) what was the breakdown for time in oven vs time on grill? And that's a darn good question...what on earth did you guys have a cheap yucko beer on hand for? :D
50-60 min in the oven & about 10 minutes on the grill. And to set the record straight, we did not have PBR on hand. It was purchased expressly for the bird. :-p I can't take responsibility for the choice of beers as I would definitely have preferred Labatt Blue (you know, something I drink). Will the actual beer buyer like to comment?
Yes, I bought PBR. We needed beer in cans and I usually only buy bottles. I would have bought a Canadian macro, but our Albertson's didn't have it in cans. I KNOW I hate Bud and Miller so I decided to see what the PBR fuss was all about. I think I may have had one back in high school, but I wanted to give it another try. I will say that while it is still pretty bad, if I have to drink 50 cent a can beer, it is better than the other macro brews.
In my defense, the other beer in my fridge is Bridgeport IPA and Deschutes Jubelale. I support my local breweries.
