I have always been really intimidated by the grill but I gave this entire meal idea as is and it was fantastic! 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!

Kate – All I do is remove anything “hanging” with scissors. So the outside silk is removed, but that it.

Roni,

Did you leave the silk on the corn, or did you remove that?

Sounds yummy! I’m tryin’ it!

Thanks,
Kate

I have made this version several times. 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 am definitely going to try this. I’m guessing my husband will have similar comments! Just want to say I have been enjoying your blog! Really great ideas.

Hey Roni,

I tried this whole entire meal last night. 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

We make this all the time. 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.

Yum, yum, yum

Roni,
At Home depot and Lowes they carry a beer can chicken holder. 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.
