Beer Can Chicken
1 (4-pound) whole chicken
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons of your favorite dry spice rub
1 can beer
Remove neck and giblets from chicken and discard. Rinse chicken inside and out, and pat dry with paper towels. Rub chicken lightly with oil then rub inside and out with salt, pepper and dry rub. Set aside.
Open beer can and take several gulps (make them big gulps so that the can is half full). Place beer can on a solid surface. Grabbing a chicken leg in each hand, plunk the bird cavity over the beer can. Transfer the bird-on-a-can to your grill and place in the center of the grate, balancing the bird on its 2 legs and the can like a tripod.
Cook the chicken over medium-high, indirect heat (i.e. no coals or burners on directly under the bird), with the grill cover on, for approximately 1 1/4 hours or until the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F in the breast area and 180 degrees F in the thigh, or until the thigh juice runs clear when stabbed with a sharp knife. Remove from grill and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Try partially cooking the chicken in the kitchen (roast or poach) before grilling. Most barbecue sauces have so much sugar in them, that they can burn easily. It will also help to cook the meat more evenly.Anyone have a good recipe for cooking chicken on the grill?
Marinade it in Italian dressing over night, add seson to your preference and grill the next day it keeps it tender and juicy.
go to the store and by a bottle of DALE's marinate,pour over the chicken and let it sit over night, then grill it slow.
I always like the drunken chicken. Whole chicken, take a couple of glugs from a can of beer and put the can with the beer up the chicken's butt. Put on grill with chicken standing up. It makes it very moist and tasty. Just be carefull taking it off when it's done.
