How to Make Barbecued Beer Can Chicken Cook S Country
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. This helps the skin crisp up.
- Place the chicken upright on a beer can (about 12 oz. remains in the can). Ensure the can is stable.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken, ensuring even coverage.
- Place the chicken on a roasting rack set inside a large roasting pan. This will help with even cooking and prevent the bottom of the chicken from burning.
- Roast for 1 hour and 50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the thigh.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving. Enjoy!
