Summary

Description

Chicken on a beer can? You bet! When Steven Raichlen, America's barbecue guru, says it's the best grilled chicken he's ever tasted, cooks stop and listen. An essential addition to every grill jockey's library, Beer-Can Chicken presents foolproof recipes for the ultimate poultry grilling technique, plus the perfect sides and desserts-more than 50 recipes in all. The results? The perfect bird, crackly crisp, succulent within-the most flavourful chicken you've ever tasted. Beer-Can Tandoori with yogurt, warming spices, and of course, India's Kingfisher Lager. Sake Chicken with a wasabi-sesame rub. Truffled Chicken and Cousin Rob's Cajun Chicken. Other birds on the can: Root Beer Game Hens and Beer-Can Turkey (perched on a 32-ounce can of Foster's). "Beerless birds" (Ginger Ale Chicken, Black Cherry Soda Chicken), and birds cooked off the can in clever ways-like Stoned Chicken (grilled under a brick) and Welder's Chicken (wrapped in foil and turned with welder's gloves). Whether on a can, under a brick, or in the embers, each grilling technique is explained in easy-to-follow steps, with recipes that guarantee no matter how wild the process, the results are always outstanding. Includes sides, desserts, and all new instructions for beer-canning on a pellet grill-with full-colour step-by-step and beauty photography throughout.
