For the final show of The Next Food Network Star, Adam Gertler made beer can chicken, but I can’t seem to find it. Anyone have the SAME one he used?

  1. It was pretty hard to discern the recipe on this one but he used the same exact rub he used for the chicken stuffed pita.
    Smoky BBQ Rub:
    1 cup kosher salt
    1 1/2 cups light brown sugar
    1 cup smoked paprika
    1/2 cup chili powder
    1 tablespoon dried rosemary (crushed slightly with spice mill)
    1 tablespoon dried thyme
    1/2 cup granulated garlic
    You don’t use the whole amount on the one chicken, give it a good coat of rub and bottle up the rest to keep refrigerated/frozen for probably up to six months. Then take the beer (I’m pretty certain any beer would do, he used Old Chubb) and pour half in the roasting pan. Add some garlic cloves, rosemary and about a tablespoon of rub to the beer IN the can. Situate the bird on top of the can and transfer to the roasting pan. Tuck the wings so they are behind the bird and put on the lowest rack in your oven. Cook like you would any other roaster at 350 ‘ for probably about 1 & 1/2 – 2 hours depending on the size. If you buy a one with a pop-up timer, that should make it easy. I’m giving it a try tonight – good luck!
