One of the many dishes that peanutbutter♥ and I are curious about is Beer Can Chicken. I always cook Pinaupong Manok, Kinulob na Manok on special occasions, and Roasted Chicken but Beer Can Chicken is something I haven’t tried making.
These photos have been sitting in my laptop for a month now. I don’t know why I haven’t gotten around to sharing this so I’m sharing it to you now.
Beer Can Chicken is also called Chicken on a Throne, I think it’s aptly posted today now that the final episode of Game of Thrones in showing…LOL! The chicken is made to “sit” on a beer can. The steam from the beer adds flavor to the chicken and keeps it moist while being smoked.
I made the rub but it was peanutbutter♥ who did the rubbing and the smoking. To make the Beer Can Chicken Rub, I combined black pepper, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, dried thyme, ground cumin, salt, and paprika and mixed them well. You can brush olive oil or melted butter on the chicken before spreading the rub and put the leftover rub inside the beer can.
Then we smoked the chicken for about 60 minutes or just until the internal temperature reaches 165º in the thickest part of the breast. We let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before attacking…heehee! Sarap! The skin was a bit chewy but the meat remained juicy and tender, kinda like those meaty sausages (yung mga hungarian, kielbasa.. mga ganern). It tastes a bit like it too! We dipped it in a sauce made of sriracha and 7 grains skinny seasoning…
I think this recipe is worth repeating and perfecting ….what do you think? Have you tried this recipe?
