Friend just sent this and says GREAT.
We will be trying it this weekend....wonder if the "Chug 1/2 the beer" what makes this recipe so GREAT... :)
===================================================
3TBL salt free chicken grilling blend (Mrs. Dash)
1-chicken (about 4 lbs)
12 oz. can beer
1TBL brown sugar
11/2 tsp. salt
Fire up the grill for medium indirect grilling. Mix grilling blend, brown sugar, and salt. Rub 1 tsp of the blend inside. Coat the outside with cooking spray, then rub the remaining blend over the outside. Chug 1/2 the beer. Pop a few extra holes in the top of the can. Place the chicken over the can. Pull the legs forward to make a tripod. Tuck its wings behind its back. Put it on the grill, over indirect heat. Close the lid (with vents partly open). The chicken will be done in about 11/4 hours to 11/2 hours. Thermometer should read 180' when done. Let rest for 5-10 minutes.
*If using charcoal you need to add more coals after about 45 minutes.
