Question - First Time doing a whole chicken

Unknown

Had the egg for a few weeks now, decided to try a beer butt chicken today.[p]Any suggestions? [p]I will be using the Ceramic place setter and the wire grill under the bird with a drip pan. Probably cook around 300 Degrees.[p]
thanks

BC,
I've had success with using a nice dry rub all over the bird, then placing some of the rub inside the beer can. I poured out about half the beer first. Placed the standing bird in the middle of the rack, kept the temp at around 275 for about 4 hours. Perfect every time.

BC,[p]I suggest the spatchcock method. You cook it direct and it should not take more than an hour. Check the link below.[p]Cheers,[p]GrillMeister
