VERMONT BAKER'S ROAST CHICKEN WITH BEER GRAVY

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the baking powder, paprika, lemon zest, sugar, 2 tablespoons salt and some pepper. Set aside.
• Remove the giblets from inside the chicken. Rinse the chicken with cool water, inside and out, and pat dry with paper towels, inside and out.
• Sprinkle the chicken evenly with the salt mixture. Place chicken in the refrigerator, uncovered, for 12 to 24 hours to dry brine.
• Place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven; remove the other racks. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pour about half of the beer into a glass--and drink it. Place the half-empty can on a baking sheet or roasting pan and drop the garlic cloves into the can. Place the chicken on the can so it's "standing." (If you're cooking for a crowd, this is a good way of roasting more than one chicken at a time.)
• Bake until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 to 170 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, 75 to 90 minutes.
• Allow to rest, covered in foil, while you make the Beer Gravy. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pan drippings for the gravy.
• Carve the chicken and serve with Beer Gravy.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour to make a roux: cook, stirring constantly, until the flour is slightly brown. Whisk in the brown sugar to combine. Add the chicken stock, beer and drippings and whisk to combine.
• Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire and horseradish and whisk to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook, whisking, until the gravy thickens, about 3 minutes.

BEER IN THE BUTT CHICKEN & DRIPPIN GRAVY RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Prepare your grill for indirect heat. If you are using charcoal, put the coals on one side of the grill, leaving another side free of coals. If you are using a gas grill, fire up only half of the burners. Remove neck and giblets from cavity of chicken, if the chicken came with them. Gently get under the skin and run the under side with olive oil then rub underneath with the first 3 ingredients. Sprinkle all sides with the next 3 ingredients. Place in large zip lock bag for 1 hour or over night. Make sure the beer can is open, and only half-filled with beer (drink the other half!) If you want, you can put a sprig of thyme (or another herb like rosemary or sage) in the beer can. Lower the chicken on to the open can, so that the chicken is sitting upright, with the can in its cavity. I use a pie plate to put the chicken in to cook. I also loke to spray the chicken with butter all the way around to crisp up the skin while cooking. Place the chicken on the cool side of the grill, using the legs and beer can as a tripod to support the chicken on the grill and keep it stable. Cover the grill and walk away. Do not even check the chicken for at least an hour. After an hour, check the chicken and refresh the coals if needed (if you are using a charcoal grill). Keep checking the chicken every 15 minutes or so, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 160°F - 165°F. The total cooking time will vary depending on the size of your chicken, and the internal temperature of the grill. A 4 lb chicken will usually take around 1 1/2 hours. Carefully transfer the chicken to a tray or pan. Use tongs to hold the top of the chicken. Lift the chicken, beer can still inside, and move it to a tray. Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes. Carefully lift the chicken off of the can. If it gets stuck, lay the chicken on its side, and pull out the can with tongs. When done pour remaining pan drippings and beer into small sauce pan, heat over medium heat till it comes to a boil, mix about 1 1/2 tablespoons flour in a small cup, stir to blend with about 1/2 cup of water, and pour into sauce pan, whisking as you go until mixture begins to thicken. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice or pasta if desired. Serve with chicken

• 4. Place can in an oven proof dish, and position chicken over top of can, and adjust the legs to allow chicken to sit on can without falling over. All of the drippings from chicken will fall into pan as the chicken cooks. The drippings is what you will use to make your pan gravy. Position on lowest rack in oven so chicken can stand without touching top of oven.

LORI'S BEER BUTT CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. Prepare your grill for high, indirect heat. If using a beer can, place a drip pan on the grill.
• 2. Drink or pour out half the beer. Remove the top of the can with a can opener. OPTIONAL BUT BETTER: use a beer can chicken rack, made specially for this task!
• 3. Add fresh or dried herbs of your choice to the beer in the can. I like to use rosemary, oregano, parsley, onions, thyme - whatever catches my fancy at that moment.
• 4. Season the chicken all over with whatever spice mix you've chosen. Place the chicken, legs down, over the beer can.
• 5. Place the chicken with the can inside the drip pan on the grill over indirect heat. Or, place your specialty rack directly on the grill, still using indirect heat.
• 6. Grill, covered, until done. Chicken should be 165 F at the thickest part of the thigh. This will take about 45-60 minutes. When done, let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.
