Slap Me Silly Grilled Chicken

I created this marinade/rub for chicken on a whim and boy was it a HIT! We didn't have a big enough grill for chicken in a beer can, but this recipe knocked off everyone's socks. Give it a try tonight.

• Ready In: 1 hr 5 mins
• Serves: 6-8

Ingredients

• 1  whole chicken, cut into pieces
• 1 (12 ounce) can beer
• 1⁄4 cup olive oil
• 1⁄2 cup brown sugar
• 2  tablespoons garlic powder
• 1  tablespoon onion powder
• 1  teaspoon chili powder
• 1  tablespoon liquid smoke
• 2  teaspoons season salt
• 1  teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons paprika
• 1⁄8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

1. Combine all ingredients (except chicken) in a bowl.
2. Pour or rub mixture over chicken.
3. Allow to rest in a dish large enough to hold the chicken, covered, in refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
4. Grill the chicken breast-side-down on the unheated side of the grill.
5. Cook, covered, for about 30 minutes.
6. Turn it breast-side-up and continue grilling until the skin in golden brown and the meat is cooked through, about 30 more minutes.
7. Remove from grill and let stand, covered loosely with foil, for about 10 minutes before serving.
