BBQ Chicken
What's For Dinner? BBQ Chicken
BBQ Chicken is a perfect summer meal idea! With a few simple ingredients you can have the most tender and delicious roasted chicken!
Mmmm. BBQ chicken is such simple summer dinner. Or really any time of year because -30 degree weather doesn’t stop us from BBQ time! I just love the flavour that comes from roasting chicken, but I also appreciate how easy this cooking method is. It’s pretty no fuss!
We’ve always BBQ’d chicken, but for a long time I didn’t BBQ whole chicken because I didn’t have the right tools to do it. So I bought my first BBQ Chicken roaster gadget this summer. I’ve always wanted to cook a whole chicken on the BBQ and now that I have this roaster I can do that! After having now used this roaster, I can honestly say we have never had a more moist and flavourful chicken! Ever. I’ve made 3 now, and each came out perfectly.
Here is a recipe and instructions on how to roast a perfect chicken on the BBQ. I just used some simple ingredients I already had on hand. In this case, the more simple, the better! And if you don’t want to use beer in this recipe, you can also use root beer or a cola. I hope you try this and enjoy it as much as we do!
What's For Dinner? BBQ Chicken
Ingredients
- 1 - 3 to 4 lb whole chicken
- 1 - 2 tbsp olive oil
- salt & pepper to taste I like to use Lawry's Seasoning Salt!
- 1 can of beer I like to use darker beer as I think it has more flavour
- a couple of sprigs of fresh rosemary you can use dried too
- 2 - 5 cloves of garlic chopped
Instructions
- Have your BBQ preheated to medium heat.
- Lightly brush your chicken with olive oil. Season with salt & pepper.
- Empty half of your can of beer into a cup, and set aside (Do not drink it! You still need it!)
- In the can, add your rosemary and garlic.
- Place the can in the centre of the roaster (as in the picture above).
- Then, place your chicken on to the roaster.
- Take the remaining beer, and pour it into the pan of the roaster.
- BBQ on medium heat, with the lid closed until the juices run clear, and the internal temperature is 160-165 degrees (about 20 minutes/lb). My chickens have take a little over an hour. Just watch carefully, and take the temperature occasionally.
- Also, if the wings start to blacken, just tent/cover the chicken with some tin foil.
So delish! Roasted chicken always goes well with potato salad or Bowl of Bows Pasta Salad or a Bruschetta Pasta Salad!
Happy BBQ’ing!
