    This was so much fun to make, but even better to eat!

    In Louisiana, we call this drunken chicken. One thing that we do different is that we skin the chicken. This makes the flavor that you put on it go into the meat and it makes the crispy outside okay for you to eat.

    This is the most awesome chicken! My husband and I love the flavor. We loved the chicken without the sauce. It was flavorful enough without it! The sauce is yummy if you want to add it. I would recommend it!

    I've made this several times, just as the recipe directs, without fail. Did 2 chickens at one time -- taste test between beers, Heineken keg can definitely beats out Miller Lite. Are there any other suggestions for beer brand? I like the suggestion another review mentioned - to add a garlic clove to the beer - will try that next time.

    This was great. Follwed recipe exactly. Used my own home-made rub. As all the other reviews say, very moist and tender. Easy to do. A new favorite for our family.

    This has to be one of, if not, the juiciest and most tender chicken that has ever emerged from my BBQ. I'm sure that you have also heard this recipe raved about by Food Network and others. It is simple to prepare and worth the wait. The chicken comes out juicy, tender, and with loads of flavor. Served up with a salad and vegetable which can be prepared while the bird is cooking and you've got a winner.

    This is one of those meals you can put on the grill, walk away, and 1 hour 15 minutes later it's done to perfection. However, I had a party and attempted 4 chickens at the same time, needless to say, when I came back to the grill I found that was too much grease and they had caught fire. I wouldn't cook more than one at a time.

    This recipe made a crisp skinned and juicy bird. The spice rub did not add as much flavor as I would have hoped, but the flavor of meat was simple an delicious. It will make great leftovers...put into quesadillas, pasta, chicken salad, etc.

    Easy, FUN, and good!! As a tip; if there are other flavors & spices you like, add them in to the beer can. I added a touch of liquid smoke to the beer, and it was a nice compliment to the flavor!

    This was simple and absolutely great with Mesquite Chicken Seasoning. I had to leave on the grill for 2 1/2 hrs for a 5lb chicken, but it was well worth the wait. I will definately cook this in the future.
