Instructions

Step 1

Turn on your smoker and drink half of the can of beer

Step 2

While the smoker heats up, wash and dry your chicken. then rub with seasoning of choice. I use webers beer can chicken seasoning.

Step 3

Cover the head hole with tin foil so beer doesn't escape. I just make a tin foil clump and plug it. Doesn't need to be perfect.

Step 4

Put the half full can of beer- any beer will do - up the chickens butt and place in your smoker standing up. during cooking the beer will bubble up and keep your chicken moist.

Step 5

Check it every once in a while. It's done when meat thermometer says 165.
