Ingredients
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- 1/2 tsp. paprika

- 1/4 tsp. dried thyme leaves
- 1 whole chicken (4 lb.)

Preparation
Step 1
HEAT grill for indirect grilling: Light one side of grill, leaving other side unlit. Close lid; heat grill to 375ºF.
MIX first 5 ingredients; rub onto chicken.
OPEN beer can; discard half the beer. Place can on work surface; lower chicken over can, inserting can into tail end of chicken. Stand chicken on grate over unlit area, using the legs to help the chicken stand upright; cover. (Can should remain in chicken on grill.)
GRILL chicken 1 hour; brush with 1/4 cup sauce. Grill, uncovered, 15 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF), monitoring for consistent grill temperature and brushing chicken frequently with remaining sauce. Remove from grill; cover loosely with foil. Let stand 10 min. before removing chicken from can and carving chicken. Discard any beer remaining in can.
