STANDARD BEER CHICKEN RECIPE BOOK

Ingredients

1 whole chicken

1 spice & ingredients from the following pages

1 can of lager or beer

Preparation

Ensure you have an adequate stock of your favourite lager or beer. Open a can and quench your thirst. (Repeat as required!) Remove the neck, giblets and excess fat from the chicken and discard—spice as per recipes on the following pages. Set aside.

Open another can and take several gulps (make them small gulps so that the can is still just over two-thirds full). Place the can on a solid surface. Grabbing a chicken leg in each hand, plunk the bird cavity over the can. Transfer the bird-on-a-can to your Beerbird® grill and place it in the center of your covered barbecue or your oven. If you are using an oven, don't forget to place a drip tray under the chicken. Once the oven is closed or you have put the lid on your barbecue, crack open another frosty, sit back and wait for the juiciest, most tender and flavourful chicken you will ever taste.

Cook the chicken over medium-high, indirect heat (i.e. no coals or burners directly under the bird), with the barbecue cover on, for up to 1 and 3/4 hours or until the internal temperature registers 74' C in the breast area and 82'C

thigh, or until the thigh juice runs clear when stabbed with a sharp knife. If cooking in an oven, cook at gas mark 4. Please note that the beer does not evaporate during the cooking process. As such, expect the can to be as full as you started. Remove from the barbecue or oven and

let rest for 5 - 10 minutes before carving. Enjoy more of your favourite

amber nectar!

REMEMBER: Beerbird is also delicious when soft drink substitutes are used (like cola, carbonated fruit juice and ginger beer.)
