Weird, right?!?
It sounds so gross but y'all it tastes so good. This is one of my summer favorites but now Ill grill it or bake it to help me prep food for the week. It makes the chicken so juicy and not dry one bit!
Ingredients:
Whole Small Chicken: varies $5 to $7
A can of Bush Light: .63 cents
2 Tablespoons real butter: .05
Mrs. Dash Seasoning: $ 2.62 (optional)
Total: 7.68 (or 10.30 with the Mrs Dash)
Directions
Before preparing the chicken, open the package then take the bag out of the chicken. (That little package has the gizzards, neck and liver? in it. I don't eat those things so I just throw them out).
With an empty chicken, grab a can of beer. My dad says the rule is to take a big drink, but I'm not a beer fan so instead of drinking it, I pour a little bit into a bowl and set aside.
Your beer should still be 3/4 of the way full. If you are baking the chicken, then you adjust your racks in our oven to fit the chicken if its standing. You put the beer in the middle of a 9x13 cake pan. Then take the chicken and place it over the can, so that literally the beer is in the chickens butt.
In a separate small bowl, melt the butter. Once melted, mix with the bowl of beer and drizzle over the outside of the chicken. Sprinkle it with Mrs. Dash seasoning (or your seasoning preference). If there is any beer/butter mix left, pour it down the chickens neck so it will go into the beer can.
Cover your 9x13 pan and place on the grill or in the oven. You want to keep the chicken in the pan to catch any overflow as it cooks. Cook until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. This ensures your chicken is fully cooked!
Once done, take off the heat and let sit for 10 minutes. This allows the meat to rest and hold onto the juice.
Pair with your favorite side dishes & enjoy!
As you know, my go to sides are a veggie and potato. I simply bake a potato in the oven as the chicken cooks (.52) & I make the steamed veggie bags (.98 cents).
An entire meal for
.52 + .98 + 7.68 = $9.18
