Beer/Soda (Chef's Choice)

Sittin' Chicken

Cooking Time: 1.5-2 hours

Cooking Temp: 350ºF

1. Pour beer or soda into chicken throne.  *You can mix sauce and beer into the throne, this is a personal choice!*

2. Pat chicken down with a paper towel, and then rub skin with olive oil.  Then season with
   Sweet n Sassy rub.

3. Place some slices of apple into the throne, saving a piece to stuff in neck.  Place chicken on throne tail side down just like it was in a sitting position. Take leftover apple chunk and place in the neck opening.  We like to set our throne in a foil pan and then place the whole thing into the grill.

4. Cook at 350ºF until the internal temp reaches 165ºF, always checking in the "armpit".
