Thanks to everybody for the advice the other day. Here is my attempt at round # 2. Check out that almost virgin grill. :laugh: :laugh:
Oh, and I took the advice that everyone likes pics. So here it goes.

Brazilian Beer Chicken
2 cups beer(Xingu Black Beer from Brazil)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon smokey paprika
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 medium onion thinly sliced
12 cloves garlic thinly sliced
2 bay leaves
1 chicken halved
Coarse (kosher or sea) salt
Marinate for 24 hours or more

I used hickory chips for smoke and cooked at 350 degree F skin side down for 20 minutes, flipped and cooked for another 30 minutes.
Now, this one was good. I let my charcoal burn for about 30 minutes before putting the meat on this time and the taste was great if I say so myself.
