1. My husband excels at beer can chicken

I'm a vegetarian, but he isn't.

He receives constant requests to do beer can chicken at bbqs & campsites.

So, apparently it is pretty good.

You could have just poured out the Bud, instead of drinking it, or is that against your religion?

2. How do you fit a chicken into a can of beer?

Sounds like a lot of work to me.

3. I have some chicken soaking in buttermilk.

And japanese bread crumbs for a healthy, baked version of fried chicken.

4. you should try corn-flakes

:popcorn:

6. Wait, will bran flakes work as well

maybe for a twist it could be raisin bran flakes. Yum.:bounce:

[Scout1071]

7. Yep, those are tasty as well.

These japanese bread crumbs are very crispy too. I think this suggestion came courtesy one of the network cooking shows. I think they are called Panko. Great for fish/shrimp too.

5. Don't Use Budweiser

When cooking with beer, you should apply the same rule you would to cooking with wine - if you wouldn't drink it, don't cook with it.

Of course, I won't drink any beer, but when cooking with it, I go by the aroma. If it smells like something I'd want to drink, I'll use it.

8. Um, you're talking to matcom.

"wouldn't drink it" doesn't apply.

10. Good luck..

I tried it years ago when I used to do "car camping" but couldn't sustain the fire long enough, so we had salad, beans, bread, and beer and beer.

12. We've made beer can chicken several times and it has always

turned out good. I love the way it stays so moist and has so much flavor.

13. We've had good results with beer can chicken.

We dump the beer out of the can after cooking the chicken.
