Beer Can Chicken

Got Recipe from People Magazine October 2010 (Curtis Stone). Want to try it!

2 Tb each of smoked paprika, salt and onion powder
1 Tb each of cayenne pepper and ground cumin
2 Tsp each of dried thyme, dried oregano, black pepper and garlic powder
4 lbs chicken washed and dried
Vegetable Oil
1 12 oz can of beer

In a small bowl mix together the 9 dry ingredients (extra can be stored in an airtight container for up to six months)

Preheat grill to medium high heat

Rub down chicken and its cavity with the vegetable oil. Season the chicken with rub mixture, remembering to season the cavity

Pour out 1/4 of the beer and sit the chicken on top of the beer can.

Place the chicken upright in the center of the hot grill and cover. Cook the chicken for 1 1/2 hours or until an instant read thermometer registers 165 F

Once cooked, cover loosely with foil and let rest 10 minutes before carving
