Categories Whole Chicken

Time 1h50m

Yield 2 whole chickens, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

4 cups wood chips
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons 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:

Soak wood chips in water while prepping grill and chicken.
RUB: Mix all ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
GLAZE: Mix all glaze ingredients (reserve the empty beer cans, do not rinse) and just 1 tablespoons of the spice rub; set aside.
FOR THE REST: 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.
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.

Tips:

To ensure your chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken for as little as 30 minutes. However, for the best flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight.
If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the chicken in the oven. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake the chicken for 30-35 minutes, or until cooked through.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or corn on the cob.

Conclusion:

Country barbecued chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're grilling out with friends or cooking a weeknight meal, this recipe is sure to please everyone at the table.
