Today is our wedding anniversary, and our kids found what they thought was the perfect present for my wife and I. A cast iron beer can chicken pan !

Well it certainly seems perfect for one of us ! Best put it to use. Using a chimney of KBB, no water pan, and a chunk of apple wood. The bird has a modified Basic BBQ Rub from one of Steven Raichlen's books. The pan will shield the bird, and hopefully will cook the veg well.
The center portion will fit a can, I did not use one. It's pretty wide, so small birds need not apply. Maybe a small turkey. This was about a 3.5 pound bird, and I had to cheat and cut the loose skin between the breast and back.
So far, so good.
