When it comes to chicken we eat it just about any way you can cook it. I decided today I would try a technique usually done on the grill in the oven and it worked perfectly. The skin is crispy and the meat is so moist and flavorful. Now to get working on those side dishes. Beer Can Chicken (Oven Style) 1 4-5 lb. whole chicken 1 16oz. can of beer, room temperature 1 tsp. onion powder 1 tsp. garlic powder 1 tsp. paprika 1 tsp. ground sage 1 tsp. black pepper 1 T. dried rosemary 1/2 tsp. salt 1 T. olive oil Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a roasting pan with tinfoil, pour about 1/2 C. of the beer in the bottom of the pan. Place the beer can in the center. Remove giblet packet from the inside of the chicken and rinse chicken inside and out. Carefully place the chicken over the beer can and slide the chicken down over the can and use the legs to prop the chicken up. Combine the spices in a bowl, rub the chicken with the olive oil and then rub with the seasonings. Place the chicken in the oven and bake for 3 hours or until internal temp. reaches 165 degrees. Remove from oven and let chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving.
