Bud Light Chicken Recipes

BUD LIGHT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Light your grill, I use gas and I put it on a low setting.
• Crack open a Bud Lite and drink about half of it.
• In a sauce pan, melt butter.
• Once the butter has been melted add the Tony's, cayenne, and paprika. Allow to simmer for about 3-5 minutes.
• Add black pepper and sea salt and simmer for about 5 minutes.
• Spoon about a quarter to half of the ingredients into the can of the remaining Bud Lite. If you do it too fast it will fizz all over the place and turns into a big mess. Do it slowly.
• Sit the chicken on top of the can, you are going to want to use a small round metal pan underneath the chicken. It makes for less mess later when you are cleaning your grill.
• Take the remaining portion of the sauce with the chicken out to the grill. Place your sauce to the side and place the chicken on the grill.
• Using a BBQ brush, brush the mixture all over the chicken. Just like doing a BBQ, you will brush on more and more every 15-30 minutes.
• **** Now, depending on your grill, it may take only about two hours to fully cook or it could take three hours. I have made this on a few different grills and this is about the range of time I've experienced. Don't rely on time, when it's done it's done and boy is it good!*****.

ULTIMATE BEER BUTT CHICKEN BEER CAN

Steps:

• Rinse chicken well inside an out.
• Pat bird completely dry with paper towels.
• To make the rub: mix 4 tbsp paprika, 2 tsp salt, 2 tbsp black pepper, 2 tsp cayenne pepper, and 1/4 cup brown sugar in a small bowl and set it aside.
• To make glaze: mix together 1/4 cup brown sugar, 4 tbsp ketchup, 3 tsp frank's red hot sauce, 4 tbsp white vinegar, 4 tbsp beer (save remainder in can and set it aside), and 2 tbsp of the spice rub you just made in a separate bowl; set aside.
• Pour beer can out (or drink it down) until it is just a bit over half way full and then add crushed bay leaves and 1 tsp of rub to the half full can.
• Loosen the skin on the breasts, legs and thighs of your chicken.
• Massage the rub into the meat under the skin and then all over the outside of the bird's skin as well as inside the cavity.
• Place beer can in the "butt" of the bird making the bird stand upright.
• Preheat grill with all burners on high until grill is heated and ready to cook.
• You must cook indirectly; so if you have 2 burners on your grill, turn one off (for 3 burners turn 1 off, for 4 burners turn 2 off, etc.).
• Place the standing bird on the cooler or "off" burner side of the grill with the breasts facing the hot or "on side of it (you grill should remain at about 375 degrees during the entire cooking process).
• Close lid and cook for 30 minutes, then rotate bird so that the opposite side (the back) is not facing the heated side of the grill and then continue cooking with the lid closed for 30 more minutes.
• Rotate bird back to original position with breasts facing the heat and glaze the entire bird thoroughly with the pre-made glaze; continue cooking 30 more minutes until cooked, brown and slightly crisped.
• Transfer chicken carefully off of beer can and onto cutting board.
• Let rest 5-10 minutes and then carve and enjoy!
