Recipe #8: Beer Can Chicken PLUS beer brats

I have made beer can chicken many times.  This recipe was okay, but not as good as my sister's.  This one only calls for a rub (brown sugar, salt and Mrs. Dash Chicken Blend), then you place the chicken on a half can of beer.  Several GREAT recipes call for adding seasonings to the beer, including maple syrup.  So this was good, but I couldn't help feeling like something was missing.  Chicken salad for lunch tomorrow!

     Another beer recipe tho!  On Sunday (July 10) I made beer brats.  Not in the recipe book, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.  Boiled the brats in a pasta pot with 4 bottles of Killian's Red.  Boiled 30 minutes, simmered 15 more then browned 5 minutes on each side over hot charcoal.  Served on grill-toasted buns.  They were AB FAB!!!
