BEER BUTT CHICKEN
A whole chicken is seasoned and slowly cooked on the grill. This is a bit unorthodox, but the end result is moist, flavorful, and amazing. All you'll need is some chicken, butter, beer, and seasonings.

ROASTED BEER BUTT LIME CHICKEN
Once I heard of beer butt chicken, I had to find the perfect version of it and try it. After reviewing multiple recipes, I finally put together my own version of it. It turned out AMAZING. Great flavor and so tender. Normally, I won't eat baked chicken without gravy, but this is the exception.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Rinse the chicken, inside and out, and pat skin dry with paper towels.
- Squeeze juice from lime halves over the outside of the chicken and place the squeezed halves in the cavity. Sprinkle cavity with minced garlic. Stir salt, black pepper, and rosemary in a small bowl and season the outside of the chicken with the mixture.
- Place chicken upright in a roasting pan, with the beer can inserted into the cavity far enough so the chicken doesn't fall over. Place the onion into the neck cavity to block steam from escaping. Pour water into the bottom of the pan.
- Roast the chicken upright in the preheated oven until sizzling and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh reads 180 degrees F (80 degrees C), 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Baste occasionally with pan drippings. Let chicken cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

ROSE MARY'S BEER CAN CHICKEN & PAN GRAVY
My family loves this recipe, because it is always tender and juicy, and can be cooked on the grill or in the oven. There are many versions to this recipe, but I added my own spin to it to make it unique, and felt it was a shame to waste all of the drippings, so I created a gravy to go with it. We usually have potatoes with ours,...

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Wash bird and discard all visible fat, & pat dry.
- 2. Mix garlic powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, dry mustard, and onion powder in a small bowl, mix together and rub liberally on the inside and outside of chicken. Spray chicken with none stick cooking spray, I use Butter flavored variety.
- 3. Pour out about 1/3 cup of beer,from can. Make a couple of extra holes in top of can to allow steam to escape, add 2-3 cloves of garlic,minced to can, and 1/2 teaspoon each of dried rosemary and thyme, or any of your favorite herbs.
- 4. Place can in an oven proof dish, and position chicken over top of can, and adjust the legs to allow chicken to sit on can without falling over. All of the drippings from chicken will fall into pan as the chicken cooks. The drippings is what you will use to make your pan gravy. Position on lowest rack in oven so chicken can stand without touching top of oven.
- 5. Allow chicken to cook at 400 degrees F for half an hour.
- 6. Then reduce temperature to 350 degrees F. and continue to cook for an additional one and a half hours, or until juices run clear when tested.
- 7. Remove from oven when done. Allow chicken to stand for 15 to 20 minutes before removing chicken from can to carve. Be careful, chicken and can are still hot.
- 8. When done pour remaining pan drippings and beer into small sauce pan, heat over medium heat till it comes to a boil, mix about 1 1/2 tablespoons flour in a small cup, stir to blend with about 1/2 cup of water, and pour into sauce pan, whisking as you go until mixture begins to thicken. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice or pasta if desired. Serve with chicken
- 9. Note this chicken cooks from the inside out, and is very moist.

- In a small bowl, stir together the baking powder, paprika, lemon zest, sugar, 2 tablespoons salt and some pepper. Set aside.

- Pour about half of the beer into a glass--and drink it. Place the half-empty can on a baking sheet or roasting pan and drop the garlic cloves into the can. Place the chicken on the can so it's "standing." (If you're cooking for a crowd, this is a good way of roasting more than one chicken at a time.)
- Bake until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 to 170 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, 75 to 90 minutes.
- Allow to rest, covered in foil, while you make the Beer Gravy. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pan drippings for the gravy.
- Carve the chicken and serve with Beer Gravy.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour to make a roux: cook, stirring constantly, until the flour is slightly brown. Whisk in the brown sugar to combine. Add the chicken stock, beer and drippings and whisk to combine.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. A whole chicken is best for this recipe, as it will provide more flavor and moisture than chicken breasts or thighs.
- Use a good quality beer. The beer you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the chicken, so be sure to choose a beer that you enjoy drinking.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking the chicken will make it dry and tough.
- Let the chicken rest before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Mashed potatoes, green beans, and corn on the cob are all great options.
