Summer is that time of the year when we enjoy the house parties and try new vegan chicken or poultry recipes. A BBQ party in the backyard is a must-have to make the most of this season. One of the popular dishes that we all enjoy is beer can chicken. It is fun to cook and exceptionally flavorful.
Beer can chicken, as the name suggests, is cooked by stuffing the beer can in the chicken's cavity. Placing the can on the grill or stove, let the chicken get cooked by getting indirect heat. If you are wondering how well they can manage to stand, simply pull the chicken legs forward to form a tripod and make the chicken stable over the can. The taste is amazing and the richness of flavors is an experience you might not want to miss.
