Ingredients
* 1 - 4 Lb. Fryer Chicken
* 1/2 Can of Beer (16 oz)
* 1 tbs salt
*1/2 tbs ground black pepper
* 4 tbs Cajun Seasoning (Recipe in Blog Section)
* Vegetable Oil
* Non-stick Cooking Spray
* Olive oil
* clove of garlic


Directions:

1. Open the can of beer and drink half the can.
2. Cut the clove of garlic, and put it in the beer can. Add the salt and pepper and 2 tbs Cajun seasoning to the beer can. Spray the Cooking Spray on the beer can so the chicken doesn't stick to it.
3. Rinse the chicken with cold water, and pat it dry.
4. Place the chicken down on the beer can so the bird is standing on it's butt and legs, with the can in the cavity.
5. Brush the chicken with olive oil, and rub 2 tbs Cajun seasoning on the skin.
6. Place the chicken, with the can upright, in a roasting pan in a 350F oven, or standing up on a low-to-medium-heat grill.
7. Cook until it's done (juices run clear, meat temp. 180F). Cooking time will vary, but about an hour and a half.

NOTES:
1. If cooking on an outdoor grill, do not place chicken directly over the flame or coals. Place to one side of the heat.
2. You may have trouble keeping the chicken upright. The weight of the chicken tends to tip the can over. You will have to figure out your own method to keep the chicken upright. Or you can buy a "Beer Can Chicken Rack" made for this purpose. Amazon has several models ranging from about $5 to $24. Target and many other large stores also sell chicken racks.
