Beer Can Chicken

Beer Can Chicken is a BBQ Classic. It's a great method to obtain a super juicy smoked chicken. Plus it's fun to cook!
You want to start with a room temp beer (or even warm it). Otherwise putting a cold can of beer in the cavity of the chicken will cause the middle of the chicken to take forever to cook and potentially be unsafe.

I appreciate that you tell people "we're using our seasoning but you can use whatever you want". It shows this is actually supposed to be educational and not just promotional. Great stuff!

This is amazing recipe. I have a pit boss electric smoker. I used apple juice in the water pan. We placed fresh rosemary, parsley, garlic, and a green onion in the beer can. Season it with Meat Church Voodoo. Bast it with a herbal butter at half way and towards the end. Cooked it at 375 for an hour and half then reduced to 350 for about 20 mins as my roasted mix vegetables finished. We didn't use any BBQ sauce to hide the true smoke flavor. My better half states it is absolutely the best beer can chicken he has ever has eaten. Thank you for the recipe and guidence!!!!

Just bought a pellet smoker for the first time, and a large part of why I felt comfortable making that investment into smoking my own meats has come from watching your videos. THANK YOU! I will absolutely shop from Meat Church just for saying thanks, if for no other reason.

Matt's videos have definitely helped me along my smoking/grilling journey. I was such a fan of the presentation from the videos that I started buying his rubs. My favorite is the hot honey for pulled pork and this gospel all purpose. I love to be able to support creators and his rubs have never let me down.

I just put my bird on the grill only to find out that my beer can cooking apparatus is too tall. Had to kind of squish the lid down on the chicken then proceeded to search the beercan chicken recipes on youtube where I found this one. Turns out I did a few things wrong including putting a cold beer can in the chicken and left the top of the can on. All I can do is hope for the best now! Great video and one of my favourite channels.

Loving being part of the Meat Church congregation! Brisket, chili, ribs, this is my next one. Amen brothers and sisters! Quick question. When Matt gives temps, is there any consideration to what the temp is at the grate where the meat is? All grills are different and I feel like my overall grill thermometer can be pretty different than temp at the grate. Am I overthinking this? Thanks!

@MrCubansurfer 2 жыл бұрын

You are absolutely correct. You have yo measure the temps on both the breast AND the legs because the legs take longer to cook and they are usually about 10d lower thsn the breast.
