  • Brush BBQ sauce all over and cook for additional 5 – 10 minutes to glaze the chicken.
  • Remove from oven and carefully lift the chicken off the beer and let rest for 15 minutes before carving.
  • BBQ: Use indirect heat by only lighting half of the burners. Turn to medium – high and cover for 1 hr then check until its done then brush with BBQ sauce. Follow above directions on how to prepare the chicken for roasting.
