I loved that everything could be done at one time! I happened to have one of those beer can holders for the chicken in my garage (I have absolutely no idea where this came from mind you...) so I have it a go! It made removing the chicken from the can really easy! I have always been really intimidated by the grill but I gave this entire meal idea as is and it was fantastic!

With smaller chickens i use a cleaned out soup can, which is slimmer and not as tall as a beer can. I fill it with chicken broth and it turns out fantastic. I heard to oil the outside of the can a little so it slides out better after the bird is cooked. I have made this version several times.

Everyone loved it and sadly there were no leftovers for lunch today. It was so healthy, fresh and I loved the fact that I could do everything on the BBQ. My chicken got stuck on the can too, but I made do without burning myself! Thanks, Lacey Hey Roni,

My hubby does a great job with it. There's one thing he does a bit differently, the 1/3 can of beer you get rid of, he puts in the bottom of the tray so that the flavours steam up.

Its in the BBQ section and very inexpensive.There's a slot for the beer and your chicken fits over that of course. And you don't have to worry about your beer getting stuck in your chicken. Roni,

Any idea what temp to use? And would it still cook for about an hour? (I'm guessing size of bird and oven temp are going to vary the cooking time.) Any tips would be super helpful!!

Any suggestions for cooking this in the oven? We (sadly) don't have a grill to use! This looks like it could be a GREAT staple to use not only for dinner with good veggies like you had it but in soups, to top salads, etc. with lots less oil/butter/fats than the grocery store rotisserie chickens... YUM! Looks so good! Any suggestions for cooking this in the oven? We (sadly) don’t have a grill to use!

My parents make this all the time and it's SO good but I've never tried it myself. Like you, i very rarely buy whole chickens (although I do buy a lot of pre cooked rotisserie chickens). I'm gonna have to give this a go. Thanks Roni! Yum! My parents make this all the time and it’s SO good but I’ve never tried it myself.

Any chance you may be willing to do a video post on how to actually cut up the whole chicken once it is done? I am a novice chef and have no idea how best to cut it up to get the right cuts of meat we are used to (chicken breast, thigh, wings, etc.). In the past I have just attacked it with my hands and it is not necessarily presentable! This looks great, Roni!
