One of my favorite methods is "Beer Butt Chicken". This method works best with a large fryer or small roasting chicken. The only hitch is you have to have a grill that you can cover, like a Weber kettle grill, for instance. The process is simple: 1. Start the coals in your grill. I have found that piling them to one side works best, since this method requires indirect heat. 2. Clean the chicken, removing the giblets and neck, and removing any excess fat from around the opening to the body cavity. Freeze the giblets for the next time you make soup. 3. Season the bird, inside and out, with salt and pepper or your favorite BBQ rub. Be liberal with the seasoning, since a lot of the spices will be lost during the cooking process. 4. Here's the best part - Crack open a CAN of your favorite beer. Pour half of it into a clean, frosted 16oz. mug. Open an additional beer and pour all of it into the mug. Drink some and marvel at the wonders of fermentation. Now crush a couple of garlic cloves with the flat side of a chef's knife and put them into the half-empty can of beer, along with a couple of sprigs of fresh rosemary, some fresh thyme, a couple of sprigs of sage and a bay leaf. Take the seasoned chicken and half can of seasoned beer out to your grill. 5. Yours coals should be ready by now. Make sure they are moved to one side of the grill and replace the cooking grate. Carefully insert the beer can into the body cavity of the chicken (see where the name comes from?) and place the chicken on the cooking grate opposite the pile of coals. You may have to finagle the chicken a bit to get it to stand up, but in the end it should look like the chicken is sitting on the beer can. Replace the cover on the grill. 6. Cook the chicken for about 90 minutes, rotating the bird a half-turn every twenty minutes. The chicken is done when the temperature in the thick part of the thigh is 170oF. Remove from the grill, carefully remove the beer can and allow the bird to rest under foil for 15 minutes before carving. 7. Eat the chicken. Note: I like to make a small pile of coals (5 or 6 briquettes) directly under the chicken in addition to the main pile of coals. This helps heat up the liquid in the can, releasing the aromatics of the herbs and spices, and also provides some smoke flavor as the chicken drippings hit the coals. Be cautious of flare-ups, though.

There is no need to cook chicken before putting it on the grill. You could microwave for a few minutes to make sure the inside is cooked. Most of the time the chicken should be fully cooked on the grill. Slow is better than fast when it comes to grilling.

Boil the chicken parts 15 to 20 minutes. Make sure the water is boiling when you start timing it. Refrigerate covered until ready to grill.

How do you grill chicken in the oven?

Yes, you can. When your chicken pieces are large and more meaty, they may cook on the grill on the outside and still be a little pink on the inside. You can cook them for 20 minutes in a 350 degree F oven and then transfer them to the grill to finish cooking. You can also reverse this, cook the chicken on the grill and then place in the 350 degree F oven for 20 minutes. If your chicken pieces are smaller and not as meaty, you probably won't need to do this, as they should cook completely on the grill.
