Eating a delicious grilled chicken with a crispy skin is a wonderful experience. There are various methods to achieve this, such as grilling the chicken whole or grilling it in smaller pieces for faster cooking. However, one of the best ways to make a delicious grilled chicken with a crispy skin is by grilling it with beer.

Instead of marinating the chicken with beer and then grilling it, this method involves grilling the chicken with a whole beer can. By placing the chicken on the beer can, the skin of the entire chicken comes into contact with the air in the oven, resulting in a golden brown color, crispy skin, and delicious taste.
This grilling method is suitable for both charcoal and electric ovens. It’s simple yet effective, making it worth a try for your next grilled chicken.
Here’s how you can make grilled chicken with crispy skin using this method:
– Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius.
– Dry the chicken with paper towels and marinate it.

– Pour out 1/3 of the beer from the can, leaving 2/3 of the beer. This step is crucial to prevent the can from exploding and ensure the beer doesn’t overflow while grilling.
– Place the beer can on the grilling tray, and gently position the chicken on top of the can with the head facing upwards. Press the chicken down as low as possible.

– Place the chicken in the oven. The grilling tray should be at the lowest position, and the chicken should be grilled at around 80 degrees Celsius for 60 to 75 minutes.
– If the chicken turns golden brown too quickly, you can cover it with foil after 45 minutes of grilling.
– Once the chicken is cooked, carefully remove it from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, and then cut it into small pieces.
After just 1 hour, you’ll have a perfectly grilled chicken with a crispy skin that is incredibly delicious. Enjoy!
