Great combination of flavours in this rub. I prefer to add enough olive oil to the spices to make a 'sticking rub' and slather on clean, dried chicken. Leftover spices go into the can and a 1/2 lime placed into the top of the chicken for cooking. Thanks for sharing!

I absolutely love this recipe. The chicken turned out great and the rub is the best. I now use the rub on all of our chicken that we grill and it is sooo good!!! Thank you

My girlfriend found it to be too spicy, but even tho I am usually the one to complain about hot & spicy foods, I found this to be very flavorful. Very good in my opinion.

There's nothing quite like Beer Can Chicken at an outdoor BBQ! Ever since stumbling onto recipes like these here on AR we make these every summer. And, since there's never a shortage of beer in this house or neighbor's to help us eat these birds they've become a favorite. One I made with regular paprika and one I made with smoked paprika and I added a couple teaspoons of garlic powder to each one. It's much easier to take the seasoning mixture and blend it with melted butter vs. veg. oil and place half of it into the beer can and baste the chicken with the other half. Invest in the holder that you can purchase at Wal-Mart or Bed, Bath, & Beyond, you'll be glad you did!

Very good recipe. This method makes for really tasty chicken. Play with the rub depending on your tastes or mood. I like to do one chicken with the paprika, brown sugar, cayenne and another more savory with rosemary, thyme and pepper for example. Also, pierce a lime or lemon and push that in to the neck cavity.
