The chicken turned out to be the best I ever ate! Juicy, flavourful and finger licking yummy. As mentioned in other reviews, it takes 20-30 longer to cook than indicated in recipe.

Amazing! Taste great! I added the dry rub to my bird 24 hours before I cooked it. Took out of refrigerator and brought to room temp before putting in oven. It did take longer as other reviewers mentioned (about 25 minutes

Drop the bacon, put the Bird on the grill. Turned out to be the best chicken served off the grill in a while. The rub was flavorful and made the chicken moist on inside.

I am only giving this one 3 stars because it didn't cook as instructed and took at least a half hour longer, even put it on convection over, was still raw when I cut it. Also the oregano over powered the other ingredients and oregano gets very bitter when cooked too long. I am not saying it was not good, it was very good but I expect cooks on here to get it right in their directions. Ask Paula Deen for some chicken baking help! LOL.

Makes the best tasting chicken soup when your done picking off the meat. I only needed to add a little salt (besides the vegetables.

Beer can chicken should be done on the grill and pecan wood chips used if available. Please a tin foil pie pan under your chicken so it does not flame up and clean up is easy. I like to coat mine with olive oil after the wash/dry and then coat it all with seasonings. Also, I like to add liquid smoke, soy sauce, and Dale’s Seasoning to the beer. The cook time will depend on the size but suggest you stay with the 315-325 degree range. I love finding the family roasting chickens with the pop outs when they are done timers. Makes it very easy and less guessing.
Also...let your bird rest for 5-10 minutes prior to cutting in. I have been cooking this for years and it has never failed to be a crowd pleaser.

This is an awesome recipe. I had no problem getting the can in, a little getting it out. I did it on the grill and basted with barbeque sauce, it came out fantastic!!

It's still cooking but I'm surprised I"m the ONLY one that had trouble getting the beer can in it? I bought a 24 oz instead of 12 so maybe that was the problem? Spilled the can 2x's! but maybe it was just a difficult blonde chicken: Hopefully it'll have enough flavor as I omitted the bacon!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!! But our chicken needed a lot longer to cook - I think I'm going to try it at a little higher temperature next time. But everyone in the family wants me to fix this again!
