Easy and fun way to Grill or smoke a full roaster Chicken
1 can of beer (darker the better)
1 beer can chicken holder
olive oil
1 apple
1 small onion
1 small orange
Yankee Savory (chefs Recommendation)
1 5-6 lb full roaster chicken
Beer can chicken holders can be bought at your hard wear store, grilling store or similar. Start your grill for an indirect smoke and shoot for 250′. You may want to add some cherry wood chucks or apple for more flavor, so have them soaking in water for about 30 mins.
Spray beer can chicken holder with cooking oil. Take the beer and DRINK 1/2 of it(nothing goes to waste) take the tab off and poke holes around the top with a screw driver or similar to add more holes to the beer can top. Place beer can in holder. Place chicken, butt over the can, cut up into pieces the apple and oranges and onion and put into cavity of the chicken.
Rub a little olive oil on the entire chicken and sprinkle Yankee Rub all over the chicken.
Place entire chicken and holder and all over the section of your grill where there is no coals. You can also place an aluminum pan full of water in that spot if you choose too. This will create steam and help you cook. Don’t worry the coals won’t effect the pan…just use a disposable one anyways. Don’t forget to add your wood chunks, if you choose for an additional smoke flavor.
You’ll keep your temp at 250 and spritz the bird every 1/2 hour with apple juice to keep the skin moist and tender(The best part)
In about 3-4 hours or when the internal temp of the bird reaches 165′ you are done….let rest for about 5 mins. and ENJOY the best chicken you’ll ever have.
Don’t eat the fruit…they were just for aromatics and help the bird cook from the inside along with the beer!
For all of you Salmon lovers here is an easy way to grill Salmon on the Grill. But 1st lets pick our planks.:
Cedar wood: bold
Alder: Mild , mellow flavor
Cherry: rich, bright (chef’s recommendation)
Hickory: strong and Smokey
Maple: mild and sweet
These planks can be purchased at most cook wear stores, hardware stores or grilling stores.
OK…start your coals(NO LIGHTER FLUID) for a med. heat. Use about 1/2 the coals you generally use. I have Tel Tru Thermometers on my grills , so I’ll set my direct grill (separating the coals on the bottom evenly) to about 250-275. In the mean time you should be soaking your plank in clean water for about 1/2 hour.
Cut your Salmon into steak sizes…just rub a little olive oil on the steaks and apply Yankee Cherry (chef’s recommendation) to the steaks, making sure the cherry pieces coat the fish.
Apply plank on Hot grate for about 5-10 mins so the plank gets hot. Place your steaks on the hot planks, cover the grill and grill/smoke for about 15-20 mins until the salmon is cooked.
Wait until you see the cherry glaze of this beautiful fish!
Enjoy
Take a nice Pork Tenderloin and rub it down with Yankee Orange. Add a little salt and pepper if desired. Put this in a slow cooker. Mix in a can of Cranberries into the slow cooker, add a pinch of cloves and nutmeg over the pork loin. Add a little honey over the top.
Cook on low for 4-5 hours on low. The orange and the cranberries rock together.
Enjoy
