At some point in the mid-to-late 20 th century, the bond between beer, barbecue, and chicken grew closer than ever. This occurred when someone - most likely in the American South - decided to insert a can of beer inside the body cavity of a whole chicken and cook them together to enhance the flavor and moistness.
Whether it actually does this remains an active debate, but the popularity of the cooking method is not in question. Most make the point that you shouldn't just slip any can of beer into a chicken and expect success.
Firstly, you want to open the beer or it can explode. Be sure to remove half the beer from the can too - ideally by pouring it down your own gullet - as the remaining half creates enough effect and provides enough weight to keep the bird standing upright.
