Beer Can Chicken Recipe

[@blackackcl]

Love the warm beer tip, definitely a must for BCC!

[@hairnutz]

Appreciate all your vids and awesome recipes. You sold a YS640 - purchased this morning. Ive watched every video about the YS series at least a half dozen times but watching all your recipes turn out awesome is what finally sold me over others Ive been looking at. You've proven the YS to be a one stop shop for all methods of grilling/BBQ. I only hope my food turns out half as good as you make yours look. Thanks!

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks for watching, and welcome to the Yoder family!

[@thatsmecrispy]

I love learning about the sauces and seasoning mixes you use. Maybe you could do some videos taking us on a tour of the sauces and seasonings you use sometime and how they match the flavor profiles you're aiming for.

[@sharkcitywarrior5485]

sweet tip with warming the beer first. I've always gotten uneven cooking when I do this so I started spatchcocking my chicken per your method. I'll definitely try this tip next time thanks

[@allthingsbbq]

Thank you for watching.

[@TheSmitty-js2rj]

allthingsbbq seriously needs a show on television! such great videos!

[@Kevin_747]

I love to try different herbs with these beer can recipes. I have recently used a can of the Jim Beam cola with herbs added. Thanks for the video.

[@Calicaveman]

Perfect !!! Thanks 🙏🏾

[@Th3Gam3925]

I'm definitely trying out this recipe soon, I already have the Yardbird rub actually. Thank you for all of these awesome videos!!

[@allthingsbbq]

Thank you for watching!

[@lickeygod3454]

Ok

[@jeremyhasselbacher7228]

I'm happy to see that he preheats the beer before putting the chicken on that is the most important step

[@mechanicaldrawer]

Yoo I'm loving the chance cap

[@allthingsbbq]

Yes! Since we shoot multiple videos over a couple days one hat usually makes a lot of appearances... :)

[@jackfilmskc]

Chef Tom is the man! Love all the vids. He should come hang in Lawrence, KS. Great food scene up here

[@allthingsbbq]

When we have a little time we'd love to come hang out in Lawrence. Shoot us an email at [e-mail] and we'll try and put something together!

[@Doug6714]

Looks great. I have only done one and need to try another one. I like the idea of the lemon peel. Keep smokinig

[@talon769]

Awesome video! So glad I found your channel!

[@TheRealJoeyB]

I like to brine the chicken before sharing the beer with it. Fresh herbs from the garden are a nice touch too. Will have to try the lemon and perhaps lime and orange peel. Thanks for the heads up on warming the mixture as well!!

[@LWayPro]

Thanks for making me hungry even though I just got home from lunch.

[@reckerman4u1]

Thanks for all the videos and ideas!

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks for watching!

[@benjaminthomasbuckley5004]

Great video guys. Can't wait to make this myself!

[@allthingsbbq]

Thank you! Let us know how it goes.

[@manueldollerer9354]

I really really love your videos!!! Greetings from Austria :-)

[@Elibenisrael8124]

Love the videos guys!!! Would love to see your version of BBQ baked beans!!! Keep up the good videos!!!

[@DecChild12]

I used to put a 1/4 stick of butter in the beer, make a gravy after & serve with siracha mashed potatoes

[@andrewbond3746]

great video! quick question, how do you know which rubs taste good mixed together? and how do you know how much to mix?

[@allthingsbbq]

Lots of years cooking with stuff... most of the time we learn new combos from friends and other pitmasters that lead us into new directions. I think keeping an open mind and listening to what others are doing is what makes it easier for us. Thanks for watching!

[@stevepoandl6015]

I had to pause the video when I saw the awesome beer canister chicken holster...I want one

[@allthingsbbq]

You can snag one here: www.atbbq.com/steven-raichlen-beer-can-chicken-roaster.html Thanks for watching!

[@Burschlag]

Lol, finding a way to make beer can chicken a little fancier with that contraption. Great vid as always

[@allthingsbbq]

:)

[@carlostettamanzy7461]

I love this barbecue...greetings from south brazil

[@seant6624]

Last beer can chicken I smoked I used a rub with more sugars to caramelize the skin but didn't really like the sweet with the chicken and I smoked it at 300°F, the skin wasn't crispy enough for my taste. Does smoking it at 350°F crisp it? or is it still on the softer side with a just a darker color?

[@jchong5136]

Chef Tom! The bird looks so good. Where can I get some of those rubs and sauces? Thanks

[@kingtracker184]

excellent video brother love it

[@allthingsbbq]

Appreciate you! Thanks for watching!

[@michaelquinn8498]

Seriously you smothered all those flavours with bbq sauce. 🤔

[@Digex01]

Done a few beer can chickens but this makes me want to do another one. Good Video today

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks!

[@TigerKungFu670]

Chance the Rapper hat, I love it!!!! Nice recipe man

[@dewayneandrews642]

I like cookn beer can chicken from time to time ... I really enjoy ur culinary skills throughout all ur video's & was wondering if u cld do more video's using weber kettle grill & yoder KINGSMAN ( OFFSET smoker )... I was wondering tho ; do u carry that type of beer can chicken stand on ur website?? KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK & RECIPES COMIN'.. 🤙✌

[@allthingsbbq]

Here is a link: www.atbbq.com/accessories/bbq-and-grilling-cookware/baskets-toppers-racks/broil-king-imperial-chicken-roaster-rack.html (they have redesigned the rack since this video came out a few years ago).

[@Ron-Swanson]

You sir are a master bbq chief.

[@allthingsbbq]

Thank you!

[@381Rizzle]

Why not low n slow at 225? Is it basically to crisp up the skin?

[@christianmoreno4695]

How do I go about using a charcoal grill?

[@klik23]

Would you ever consider cooking on a bbq/smoker grill like 'the good one' bbq grill? It's not an offset grill, yet you can smoke and grill steak at the same time. I'm very interested in this grill so I was wondering if that maybe you might have one on the way.

[@dannykay4967]

Indeed - great recipe! @Chef Tom: how do you reach internal temp of 165 in 2h? I tried on the big green egg, a 3.5 pound bird reached 170 in barely 40min! (Several thormometers poked at the thickest part of the breast, bird level temp 350, dome temp 390, deflector in place)

[@GrillingwithGrove]

Question for you. At the end of the cook how much beer was left in the canister?

[@Doober80]

Awesome video! However, sauce on the side for me, I love the crispy skin. The sauce may make it soft.

[@sterilegt9518]

Chef Tom rocking Chance the Rapper's cap

[@allthingsbbq]

Yes he is... Chance gets a lot of spins in our teaching kitchen.

[@olatunjiguess743]

Do u have a substitute for the beer... it's kinda hard to get that beer

[@LazyR66]

That's looks Great!! I did my first beer can chicken today and it came out pretty good. My question is, how can I get the meat seasoned down to the bone?

[@kevindowner766]

Brining or marinating.

[@walterkopriva9735]

Where can you find that canister?

[@allthingsbbq]

we don't have that exact roasting system any longer, this one is pretty close: www.atbbq.com/accessories/bbq-and-grilling-cookware/baskets-toppers-racks/broil-king-imperial-chicken-roaster-rack.html

[@termenzor]

You should do a smoked chuck roast for BBQ pulled beef

[@allthingsbbq]

We have added it to our list.

[@termenzor]

Awesome! looking forward to it.

[@Monst3r562]

Chef Tom, where can I get that beer can holder stand thing?

[@allthingsbbq]

You can snag it here: www.atbbq.com/steven-raichlen-beer-can-chicken-roaster.html Thanks for watching!

[@dieselhog6246]

Can you get that canister separately?

[@Kaioken1130]

I have a lemon butter injection. Do you think that would work with this as well?

[@panayiotismyrianthopoulos8141]

What is the brand of your knives? Greetings from Cyprus man!! Really enjoying your videos!!

[@c-norm7441]

where can I get one of those beer canisters with the stand/drip tray you have in the video.. ? thanx I Advance for the help

[@allthingsbbq]

Here: www.atbbq.com/steven-raichlen-beer-can-chicken-roaster.html Thanks for watching!

[@c-norm7441]

thanks for timely response...

[@klientastic]

link the chicken stand. also can you show us a Making Bacon recipe? love all your work!

[@allthingsbbq]

We have a bacon video coming this year for sure.

[@fatkid4904]

MVP for the chance hat

[@hex.sanmarti]

hello, thanks for the awesome recipe! can you please tell me where to buy those nice gloves? thanks again!!

[@allthingsbbq]

Top Gloves: www.atbbq.com/summit-glove-tracers-nitrile-gloves-multi-color.html Cotton Gloves (we wear them underneath): www.atbbq.com/summit-knit-gloves-dozen.html Thanks for watching!

[@hex.sanmarti]

allthingsbbq Thanks!!!

[@BreakAndRestore]

Great video as always. Do you guys ever bbg rotisserie?

[@allthingsbbq]

Sometimes... do you have a recipe in mind? We'll try and get it on our list.

[@BreakAndRestore]

Thanks for the reply. Chickens and game birds would be great. I have been experimenting with rotisserie birds with charcoal and smoke but never get the seasoning quite right ( most surface seasoning sweats off and overexposure to smoke leaves a bitterness).

[@pandapalace11]

Would you ever consider doing a video on whole roast hog over a spit?

[@allthingsbbq]

We are working on that now, hopefully it will be up this Spring. Thanks for watching!

[@pandapalace11]

freaking SWEET

[@_brianhamilton]

Any adaptations necessary for a gas grill? Sadly I don't have access to charcoal or a smoker :(

[@allthingsbbq]

Just roast it at 350º as you would normally. You can add a wood chip box to the gas grill for extra flavor. Our favorite small chip box is this one: www.atbbq.com/charcoal-companion-stainless-long-smoker-box.html Drop your favorite wood chips in, top a cup or so of water on them, and let them smoke. Thanks for watching!

[@retrokrempel]

a little tip: make a little bit Liquid (beer or apple juice) in the Stand. you can better clean the Stand and make a dip from the Liquid and fat mix from the Chicken

[@allthingsbbq]

We'll try that next time. Thanks!

[@tommclarty17]

Beer can chicken is a myth, kinda. Finished temp for chicken is 160-170 f. Boiling temp of water is 212 f. You will not get the evaporation and extra moisture if you don’t bring the beer to a boil before putting it in the chicken right before it goes on the grill. This isn’t a shit post, I love the channel.

[@pcexpress911]

what kind of gloves do you use to cook with? ...is there a video on glove usage somewhere? lol

[@andresrivera2841]

I see you with that Chance 3 hat boy Respect !

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks!

[@devm3343]

I need these rubs for my BBQ in the UK. Do they ship internationally?

[@allthingsbbq]

We do not ship to the UK at this time. Thank you.

[@jaybee6318]

Where can I get one of those beer can chicken racks?

[@allthingsbbq]

Here: www.atbbq.com/steven-raichlen-beer-can-chicken-roaster.html Thanks for watching!

[@genericname3744]

At which restaurant does chef tom cook, love to visit it someday

[@allthingsbbq]

We actually don't have a restaurant, we are part of a team that runs a retail store in Wichita, KS. But, we do host cooking classes monthly with Chef Tom and other pitmasters/chefs. You can see those here: classes.atbbq.com Thanks!

[@MrBigwill77]

H What knife did you use in this video?

[@chasethayer6933]

@allthingsbbq do you guys have a brick and mortar establishment there in Wichita? I'm in Tulsa but go up there all the time for work. would love to come try this food in person man!

[@JimJacksonOK]

Chase Thayer They have a B&M retail store and incredible showroom and kitchen at 818 W Douglas in Wichita. Chef Tom teaches classes and sometimes cooks for the customers on weekends.

[@monsterjuicedgangster4357]

I've never seen better looking chicken

[@allthingsbbq]

Thank you very much!

[@MarkWoodChannel]

Yep, preheat the beer. Still like the ceramic sitters better, the ceramic bottom directly on the grill keeps the liquid boiling inside the chicken.

[@allthingsbbq]

Ceramic sitters? You mean the porcelain ones from the ceramic grill companies like BGE or Primo?

[@MarkWoodChannel]

allthingsbbq The Primo is ceramic, but yep.

[@allthingsbbq]

It's porcelain coated right? Ceramic is super porous.

[@MarkWoodChannel]

allthingsbbq well I've had mine for 15 plus years so I don't recall what brand it is, but looking at the Primo you mentioned on Amazon it's listed as ceramic. I think the shiny coating is from Kiln firing. but I'm no expert and haven't looked it up

[@allthingsbbq]

Interesting, I had always thought they were porcelain coated ceramic like their pizza stones.

[@Michaelbartleyward]

P&R farms slow burn and marylina Sooo good

[@AnaaNis1233]

It's been technically proven that only the water is evaporating, no other ingredients. So keep the beer cool and drink it later, otherwise it is just wasted.

[@Deimos000]

hm, I've never rubbed beneath the skin. Good tip! Thanks.

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks!

[@titan5point687]

New flavor profile fo sho

[@allthingsbbq]

Indeed!

[@rickygarcia0611]

looks delicious can't wait to try this! @allthingsbbq

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks for watching!

[@dcuba1883]

i would love to see you do some lamb ribs

[@Michaelbartleyward]

Slow burn bbq out of maryland. Very good

[@Ron-Swanson]

Wow mind bomb! Thx Tom?

[@jaredbaker5887]

Best bbq channel ever! haven't seen one thing that i don't like! except when you called the top attached tenderloin roast a chatubriand... but your still the shit Chef TOM

[@535679831]

Just finished watching about half of your vids today....excellent! As someone who is seriously considering buying a YS640, I noticed on the majority of your cooks on the Yoder that you always use the top rack??? Can you explain why?

[@alihafiz4695]

awesome video , but can I substitute the beer with vegetable or chicken broth ?

[@allthingsbbq]

Sure! You can use any liquid you would like.

[@polskaking69]

32 oz crowler? Would've died if you attempted to put a crowler in the bird! I'm a huge craft beer snob so any more tips on how to cook with beer and beer pairings would be awesome for some n00bs watching.

[@dannygonzalez8551]

Awesome bird

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks for watching!

[@sloburn69]

He sounds like Zach Galifianakis

[@commissionergordan]

Jamican Bacon

[@lj6672]

how to take the fun out of bbq

[@allthingsbbq]

Chicken?

[@mattman8822]

Did you guys brine this bird?

[@allthingsbbq]

No we did not. Just rub and a little sauce plus the aromatics. Thanks for watching.

[@112Haribo]

The BBQ sauce ruins it... Those sauces have such an intense flavour, that you're not gonna taste the beer OR the rub. Shame.

[@allthingsbbq]

Have you had this sauce? There is zero way anyone would say it ruins this bird. It compliments it perfectly, and the rub still stands out wonderfully.

[@CHIKINWING]

Harold Holsappel you dont taste the beer anyway

[@jayrobertson8008]

age old argument depending on where your from...some like it wet, some like it dry but I have to agree with you don't taste the beer...I blame it on bobby flay and one of his gimmicks, lmao....first time I even heard of it he was shoving a half a can of budweiser up a birds ass....me as a beer drinker and bbq'r tried it and tasted no beer...My opinion is take half that rub off the bird, add it to a cast iron skillet over a hot flame and make your own bbq sauce with some beer in it...i ain't giving up the recipe but also some brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, a lil honey, some crystal hot sauce and I think you guys can think of the rest) then baste that bird but add it back to the heat to add some smoke flavor and some char to that good ass sauce you just put all that effort into...thats the biggest mistake i think people make with sauce..put that piece of meat back on some flames after you sauce it...to those that appreciate this then enjoy...to those that don't i don't give a shit, we all got opinions like we all got assholes and they all stink at different times till we clean them up so deal with it 😂😂to good bbq for all🍻

[@dastreetspart3370]

don't worry, no one's inviting you to eat....

[@BillM1960]

Ruined is not the right word, but I would have rather had it without it myself for the crispy skin. It's more a matter of taste I guess.

[@jaredperez14]

Chance hat!

[@allthingsbbq]

Chance is the man.

[@fredfraggle683]

Love your beard! Best regards from Germany!

[@allthingsbbq]

Thanks!

[@CosmicStargoat]

All you do with this method is just waste a beer.

[@gudebro2000]

It’s cool and all but beercan chicken has been roundly debunked

U stole this idea from van himself

Beer Can Chicken is so overrated... lol...
