BARBECUED BEER CAN CHICKEN



Barbecued Beer Can Chicken image

This is simply the best beer can chicken I have ever had. You first rub a spice mixture over the chicken, then baste it with a delicious glaze. We've had it many times this summer. Winter's coming, and I can't wait to try it in the oven! This recipe makes two chickens; simply cut it in half if you prefer just one.

Time 1h50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons beer
1 teaspoon hot sauce
2 (12 ounce) cans beer
4 bay leaves, crumbled
2 (3 -3 1/2 lb) roasting chickens, patted dry

Steps:

  • Turn all grill burners to high and close lid to preheat.
  • For the spice rub: Mix 2 T. brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper and cayenne in a small bowl and set aside.
  • For the glaze: Stir 2 T. brown sugar, ketchup, vinegar, beer (take from your beer cans) and hot sauce in a bowl; add 1 T. spice rub; set aside.
  • Pour out about 1/2 cup or so from each can of beer. Using a church key can opener, punch holes in the top of the can to completely "open" the top; this will allow maximum steam to escape. Add 2 crumbled bay leaves to each can.
  • Loosen the skin on the chicken breasts and thighs of the chicken by sliding your fingers between the skin and the meat. Massage the spice mixture on the skin, under the skin, and inside the cavity. Using a skewer, poke the skin all over to render as much fat as possible while cooking.
  • Turn off all but primary grill burners, leaving main burner(s) on high (for my grill, I leave two burners on, but this will depend on how many burners your grill has -- mine has three. The temperature inside your grill should stay around 375). Place chickens on cans; place on cool part of grill, using drumsticks to stabilize them. Cover and grill until skin is very well browned and very crisp, 40 to 60 minutes. Brush with ketchup glaze and grill, covered, until thigh meat registers 170 degrees on instant-read thermometer, about 20 minutes longer.
  • Transfer chickens to cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.

BEST EVER BBQ CHICKEN



Best Ever BBQ Chicken image

The BBQ sauce on this juicy grilled chicken is out-of-this world! We "wow" people with this recipe every summer during outdoor entertaining. I always double the sauce recipe to have extra on the side for dipping. The original recipe calls for 2 small boiler chickens quartered but we prefer using bone-in, skin on chicken breasts. Slow cooking on the grill gives it the best flavor. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do - it's a favorite at this house.

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons butter
1 cup Heinz ketchup (a must for us)

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2-3/4 tablespoon celery seed

1/2 teaspoon salt
2 dashes hot pepper sauce
8 large chicken breast halves, bone-in with skin (a large family pack will usually have about 7-8 breasts.)

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, saute the garlic in butter until tender.

  • Grill 15 minutes longer or until juices run clear.
  • Continue basting and turning during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
  • Serve with any extra sauce you set aside for dipping.
  • (The sauce is just that delicious!).

OVEN BBQ CHICKEN



Oven BBQ Chicken image

Lacquered with barbecue sauce, this juicy chicken swaps constant flipping on the grill for a mostly hands-off process using the oven and one smart trick: The dry-rubbed chicken roasts most of the way on top of barbecue sauce. The resulting sauce becomes thickened and glossy from the chicken's rendered fat. It's then spooned onto the chicken and roasted until sticky, caramelized and rich with flavor. Serve the extra sauce with dinner, for dipping chicken, or spooning directly into your mouth. (For boneless barbecue chicken, try this stovetop method.)

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (18-ounce) jar barbecue sauce, or 2 cups homemade barbecue sauce
About 3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken leg quarters or thighs, patted dry
1 tablespoon neutral oil (such as grapeseed)
2 teaspoons store-bought or homemade chili powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Pour the barbecue sauce into a 9-by-13-inch baking pan or dish, or a large skillet, or another ovenproof vessel that fits the chicken snugly, then shake so the sauce disperses into an even layer.
  • In a large bowl, toss the chicken with the oil, chili powder, paprika and 1 teaspoon salt until coated. Arrange the chicken, skin side up, on top of the barbecue sauce. Roast until the chicken skin is crisp, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Scrape the sides of the pan and stir the barbecue sauce to incorporate the caramelized bits into the sauce. Turn the chicken to coat in the sauce, arrange skin-side-up, then spoon sauce on top of the chicken. Roast until the chicken is sticky and charred in spots, 10 to 15 minutes more.
  • Transfer chicken to plates. Stir the apple cider vinegar into the sauce remaining in the pan. Serve the chicken with the extra sauce.
