Let the bird cool for 15 minutes or so before serving. It will fall off the bone and is easiest served in large chunks rather than sliced.
Here is a basic recipe for Beer Butt Chicken:
1 12 oz. can beer (half full)
1 whole chicken (small size)
1 cup melted butter
1 T. garlic salt
1 tsp. pepper
Place chicken over half full can of beer. Melt butter with seasonings and brush over outside to chicken. Place upright on grill with indirect heat on a charcoal grill or a gas grill. A barbecue smoker is even easier for this recipe if you have a smoker. Cover and cook 1 1/2 to 3 plus hours. Check and add butter as needed during cooking.
Use other seasonings in the can of beer, inside the chicken cavity or mixed with the butter for different taste options. This is a fun recipe to play around with.
