Don’t get on me for making this beer can chicken in the oven and not on the grill. I really wanted to make Beer Can chicken on the grill this year but alas, our grill is just not tall enough for a lovely chicken to hang out inside of it with a beer can under it’s bum.
So in our house we opt for Oven Roasted Beer Can Chicken and it is darn good, y’all!
What you’ll need to make Beer Can Chicken:
- Whole Chicken
- Beer (or chicken stock if you are against beer)
- All Purpose Seasoning
What we use for our Beer Can chicken:
Now you can use any brands you want, but these are what we use for now. I say for now because we’re always switching up our seasonings and well when I cook with beer, I just grab whatever for recipes like this.
I had Budweiser at the house from when I was making a bunch of beer bread so that’s what I used.
This seasoning is what we’ve been using on chicken lately and it’s fantastic!
Preparing the chicken for roasting:
Preheat oven to 350F. You may need to remove racks from the oven so that the chicken will fit. Do this before they get hot.
Remove giblets from chicken.
Rinse chicken and pat dry.
Sprinkle seasonings all over chicken and some inside.
Pour half of beer into the bottom of a casserole dish.
Place beer can into the center of the casserole dish with the remaining beer inside.
Place chicken on top of beer can and push down so that the beer can goes at least half way into the cavity of the chicken.
Chicken should be standing upright.
Place casserole dish and chicken into preheat oven.
Roast for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
A 4 pound – 4.5 pound chicken should be done after 1.5 hours. Chicken needs to reach an internal temperature of 165° Fahrenheit to be done cooking.
Remove chicken from oven once cooked and let rest 5 minutes.
