Beer Butt Chicken - SIMPLE
This recipe isn’t any different than most beer butt recipes it’s just the one I tried and it worked. aS for those that want to debate the actual benefits or science associated with the use of the beer (or lack thereof); I don’t care one way or the other, it seems to satisfy our families taste buds just fine!
Preparation and Cooking Directions
1.Preheat BGE to 400 degrees with raised grid (2” extra)
2.Soften butter in microwave and spread over entire surface of chicken
3.Apply Paul Prudhommes Poultry Magic on the outside surfaces.
4.Using your favorite beer can chicken cooking device set it up and add the ½ can of beer
5.Place Chicken on the holder then place on Gird and insert meat thermometer into thickest part of the thigh
6.Let cook until the temperature reaches 180 degrees (somewhere around one hour)
7.Remove and let rest (watch that can and rack, it will be HOT!), slice and serve.

Good looking yardbird
Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Just given a Mini to add to the herd. -
It surely looks great - the true measure of success is whether or not you liked it - given your comments I'd say it was a complete success....Thanks for posting the step-by-step - I will try this soon!

Great pics too! -
Tony I love that plate with the bird on it. Really one of the better looking chickens in a while. For some reason it just looks sooo moist! :woohoo:
