Ingredient List:
- 2 — Whole Chickens
- 3 Tbsp — Herb It Up Seasoned Oil or Spice It Up Seasoned Oil
- 3 oz — Raichlen’s Island Rub
- 1 — Raichlen’s Beer Can Chicken Roaster
- ½ can — cola of your choice
- 3 oz — Pineapple juice
- 4–6 — chunks Apple Wood
Instruction:
Coat the “Chicken” lightly with Oil of Choice and then a light to medium coat of the Raichlen’s Island Rub, on all sides.
Coat the Raichlen’s Beer Can Chicken Roaster lightly with Oil of Choice and then add a dash of the Raichlen’s Island Rub, into the cola in a microwave proof bowl. Warm the cola seasoning blend to almost boiling and place into the Beer Can Chicken Roaster. Slide the chicken over the upright liquid tube, folding the legs together and the wings behind themselves.
Preheat the smoker or gas grill to low and slow heat (170–210°), and add the Apple wood. Set the “Chicken” into the smoker in the indirect heat zone for ~ ½ to 1 hour until meat surface is lightly browned. Then elevate the oven’s temperature to 350° and roast until meat has a crispy skin with a nice bronze color, ~ 1 hour. Finish the meat at 350° for ~ 1/2 to 1 hour until the internal meat temp is at least 165°, both in the breast meat as well as the thigh leg meat…. Pull the “Chicken” to rest and then slice or shred the meat. You can drizzle a little of the cooking cola and seasoning from the Chicken Roaster, as this helps to flavor the finished meat, serve immediately.
Enjoy!!
