1 tablespoon paprika
salt
and pepper.
Discard 1/2 of the beer
leaving the remainder in the can. Add remaining butter

and pepper to the beer can. Place the can on a baking sheet or disposable pan. Set chicken upright on the beer can
inserting the can into the cavity of the chicken. Baste chicken with melted
seasoned butter.
Place the baking sheet with beer and chicken on the preheated grill. Cook over low heat until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear

near the bone
should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
