Notes:
-
13
It is easier to control the heat for the first phase of cooking the chicken in beer on a gas grill; if you have charcoal, I definitely would recommend doing this portion in a 350-degree oven for the same amount of time.

You may not use this much barbecue sauce, but in the case of delicous barbecue sauce, too much is always better than too little for me!
-
15
If you are not a fan of the sauce, start the chicken in the beer, then you can add any of your favorite seasoning blends or sauces to the chicken.

The beer process really just imparts great moistness and flavor into the chicken!
