Beer Butt Chicken

This is just one of the marvelous recipes I inherited from LSO. I inquired with my father-in-law about measurements in an attempt to standardize the recipe. His response is typical of many family recipes. Thankfully Beer Butt Chicken has become quite popular. If you don't like what you see below I recommend a Google search.
