After hearing about B-B-Q Beer can Chicken and Googling it, I decided to give it a go.
But not wanting to cook a painted aluminum beer can with plastic widgets to 400*F(gas6)
I came up with some stainless steel from the scrap bin, the tube a length of off-cut
from a shop stair banister,the plate the holes drilled in wrong place, Had it "Tigged"
To produce Tuesday nights tea using Guinness and tonights Saturday with Cider
4 Lbs. Chicken wash, dry, push garlic slices under skin rub with Olive Oil, rub with spices.
In Teddys spice mix :-
salt,sugar,cummin,chilli,black pepper,cayenne,paprika,origano,onion,garlic,
west indian all spice(lemony/pepper),cinnamon,thyme,ginger,mustard powder.
Into the stainless steel tube Cider(3/4 full) and a spoon of above spices.
Chicken impaled on tube and wrapped in foil then placed in roasting tin
with 1/2 pint water and into oven at Gas 6 for 30 minutes then turn round
for another 30 minutes. Then remove foil and place parsnips onions and potatoes
around base and drizzle vegatables with olive oil for another 30 minutes the turn again
for another 30 minutes. Two hours cooking thats 30 minutes per pound check legs are
cooked ( stick knife in look at juice (it should be clear if not give another 10 min. try again )
All OK remove from oven allow to cool for 10 minutes, while making gravy from juices in roasting tin.
Ready for foil wrap and water before placing in oven
Result moist and juicy----------------- Droool!
just thought I'd share, although done at home could be adapted to out door ?
cheers all Danny
