Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 – 3 to 4 lb whole chicken
  • 1 – 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt & pepper to taste (I like to use Lawry’s Seasoning Salt!)
  • 1 can of beer (I like to use darker beer as I think it has more flavour)
  • a couple of sprigs of fresh rosemary (you can use dried too)
  • 2 – 5 cloves of garlic (chopped)

Instruction

  • Have your BBQ preheated to medium heat.
  • Lightly brush your chicken with olive oil. Season with salt & pepper.
  • Empty half of your can of beer into a cup, and set aside (Do not drink it! You still need it!)
  • In the can, add your rosemary and garlic.
  • Place the can in the centre of the roaster (as in the picture above).
  • Then, place your chicken on to the roaster.
  • Take the remaining beer, and pour it into the pan of the roaster.
  • BBQ on medium heat, with the lid closed until the juices run clear, and the internal temperature is 160-165 degrees (about 20 minutes/lb). My chickens have take a little over an hour. Just watch carefully, and take the temperature occasionally.
  • Also, if the wings start to blacken, just tent/cover the chicken with some tin foil.
