What is the quickest we can cook these chickens? Just put 2 beer can chickens on the gasser, corked with onions and wrapped the top of the chickens with foil. Can we cook over 375?
This is exactly what I was going to say. Foil those wings and drummies.Agree with Bob, the wings are the best part, so wrap them in foil about an hour into the cook
Thank you guys. I was heading out to do it. When one hard headed marine wants to do the opposite of this hard headed marine. cant wait to blame the dry wings and drummies on him. but im sure he'll figure it out how to blame it on me.
I just sent this to my dad, who loves cooking beer can chicken. Will leave it to people to judge for themselves regarding the author's conclusions.

I have a friend who waves the beer can chicken flag with great flourish. I have never seen any advantage or improvement. The vertical roasting does make some sense but, I never eat the back meat (or skin) but use it in roasted chicken stock so, I will continue using the method I have used for forty some years and stay content.
At least until I get my Vortex and go vertical inside that.
