Nice looking birds there Ron! You could have turned them facing one another and it would have looked like a Fight Promo Photo! Battle of the Birds!

LOL, we call it "butt chicken" or at least that's what the kids asked for when they were younger. "Dad, can you make butt chicken"? It stuck.

Did one about a month ago. Instead of just beer, I used 1/2 Dark rum and 1/2 beer. The flavor was substantial. I think you do need to work on creating more aromatic vegetable flavors as you seem to have done. Do you use a leave in thermometer or just eye it up?

I always stuff the neck with a pear or an apple or a lime. Onion will work too.

Course i always do em on the grill or in the smoker.

Nice work none the less. Love them beer butt chickens!!!!

 

[RonC]

i do check them with an instant read thermometer toward the end.

these got rubbed down with olive oil first. Then I hit them with some Italian salad dressing. Then a heavy coating of butter mixed with seasoning. Then more dry seasoning. Then basted along the way with my favorite mop sauce.
