Ingredients

Season the chicken inside and out with the fajita seasoning and set aside. Empty out one half of the beer. Fill the beer can with the chopped onion and garlic. Add the pickled jalapeno pepper's juice into the beer can with the onion mixture. Place the filled beer can into a ChickCan Rack. Prepare grill for cooking (350?F). Place the prepared chicken on been can holder over the indirect heat side of the grill. Grill the chicken for 2 hours or until fully cocked with an internal temperature from the thickest part of the thigh of 180?F. Carefully remove the chicken and can holder from the grill and allow to set for 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the can and place on a cutting surface and cut into 6 or 8 portions. Empty the can contents, onions and juice, over the cut chicken pieces.

This is excellent. One of my favorite ways to have chicken! Followed the recipe mostly, but I actually chopped up a little bit of the jalepeno and added it along with the juice, and instead of Fajita seasoning I used Emeril's All Natural Chicken Rub. I highly suggest this combo!!! Also, the indirect heat is very important so it cooks with all the heat (cause you keep it closed up and covered) and so the flames don't charr the outside. :-) I made this for a party and everyone still raves!

Prep time is very little 10-15 min., but I used a charcoal grill so add another 10 min. to get the coals up and ready. A beercan chicken hold helps, i used skewers to keep it steady standing which worked so-so/okay.
