Ingredients:

For the Rub:

· 2 tablespoons smoked paprika

· 2 tablespoons salt

· 2 tablespoons onion powder

· 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper

· 1 tablespoon ground cumin

· 2 teaspoons dried thyme

· 2 teaspoons oregano

· 2 teaspoons black pepper

· 2 teaspoons garlic powder

For the Chicken:

· 4 pounds chicken, rinsed and dried

· Vegetable oil

· Rub mixture (See above)

· 1 (12-ounce) can of beer

Instructions:

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (350 degrees Fahrenheit).

2. For the rub, combine the smoked paprika, salt, onion powder, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, thyme, oregano, pepper, and garlic powder.

3. Rub the entire chicken, cavity included, with vegetable oil. Season it, inside and out, with the rub mixture.

4. Pour out (or drink) 1/4 of the beer and place the chicken over the can, such that it sits upright.

5. Place the chicken in the middle of the grill and close the lid. Cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear and a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
