Preparation

Step 1

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine salt, brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, and red pepper ( cayenne ). Add oil and chicken. Seal bag, and shake until chicken is well coated. Pour beer into bag. Seal bag, refrigerate for at least 8 hours. Remove chicken formable, discard marinade. Let stand at room temp for 30 minutes. Preheat grill to medium high heat ( 350-400). Grill chicken over indirect heat, covered turning occasionally, until thermometer reads 160. about 30 minutes.
NOTE: I sprayed a grill pan with olive oil, grill was at 400. I put chicken on indirect heat side. After chicken was almost done about 30 minutes, I moved it to the heated side and got it nice and charred.
