The magic of Beer Can Chicken lies in its unique cooking method. For reasons that are as simple as they are effective, placing a half-filled can of beer into the chicken’s cavity results in a bird that is exceptionally tender, incredibly juicy on the inside, and boasts a wonderfully crispy skin on the outside. This method steams the chicken from within while the external indirect heat crisps it up, creating a perfect balance. This particular Beer Butt Chicken recipe is a perennial favorite throughout the summer months, making it a staple for grilling season and backyard barbecues.
