      Title: Beer Can Chicken
 Categories: Poultry, Bbq, Herbs, Beer, Citrus
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      2 ts Packed brown sugar
      2 ts Paprika
      2 ts Salt
      1 ts Dry mustard
    1/2 ts Ground black pepper
    1/2 ts Dried thyme; crushed
    1/4 ts Garlic powder
     12 oz Can beer
  3 1/2 lb Chicken; whole
      2 tb Butter; softened
      1    Lemon wedge
 
  In a small bowl combine brown sugar, paprika, salt, dry
  mustard, pepper, thyme, and garlic powder. Discard about
  half of the beer from the can. Add 1 teaspoon of the spice
  mixture to the half-empty can (beer will foam up).
  
  Rinse chicken body cavity; pat dry with paper towels.
  Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the spice mixture inside cavity.
  Add melted butter to the remaining spice mixture in bowl;
  mix well.
  
  Hold the chicken upright with the opening of the body
  cavity at the bottom; lower it onto the beer can so the
  can fits into the cavity. Pull the chicken legs forward so
  the bird rests on its legs and the can. Twist wing tips
  behind back. Stuff the one lemon wedge into neck cavity to
  seal in steam. Brush butter mixture over outside of
  chicken.
  
  For a charcoal grill, arrange medium-hot coals around a
  drip pan. Test for medium heat above pan. Stand chicken
  upright on grill rack over drip pan. Cover and grill for
  1-1/4 to 1-3/4 hours or until chicken is no longer pink.
  If necessary, tent chicken with foil to prevent over
  browning. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to
  medium. Adjust for indirect cooking. If necessary, remove
  upper grill racks so chicken will stand upright. Grill as
  above.)
  
  Remove chicken from grill, holding by the can. Cover with
  foil; let stand for 10 minutes. Use a hot pad to grasp can
  and heavy tongs to carefully remove the chicken. If
  desired, serve with additional lemon wedges.
  
  Makes 4 servings.
