Totally useful and effective. November 20, 2008

Stable and safe, it holds the chicken proudly upright. That alone is a huge virtue. And, better yet, it actually produces a very excellent result for very little effort. It is easy to clean, too.
The idea is that you add beer to the container below the spikey thing, and also to the pan area. Fruit juice or any likeable liquid also works very well. So, you can finish off the beer and find something in the fridge that will work just as well. I also add garlic and some rosemary because we have a big bush of it outside the door.
You just slide the chicken on and put the little plug in the other end to trap the steam. Steam must be the secret because otherwise it is just heat like in any oven.
My wife makes a rub with some flour, cornmeal, red pepper, salt, garlic powder and onion powder in variable ratios. Rub some oil on the chicken and then the rub. It comes out very crispy on the outside and amazingly tender on the inside.
I use those Weber coal retainers that keep the coals to the sides of the kettle so there is a place in the middle for the chicken roaster. Keep the coals clear to the sides. If you use a chimney charcoal starter, filling it up will give you more than enough coals. The spikey thing rotates easily, so just give it a 1/4 turn every 15 minutes and you will find it is done in an hour at most.
Using it in an oven would work well also. You wouldn't have to rotate it. I would suggest a high enough heat to make the dry rub work.
This is not a cheap item, but is very much worth it because of the results, no nearly good enough alternative and it is so well made that it should pretty much last forever. It will be on Antique's Roadshow some day, so don't lose the plug.

This product is excellent. It makes the best roast chicken I have ever had. I have cooked several chickens in the oven using the poultry roaster and they come out extremely moist and tender. The recipe in the manual for barbequed beer chicken is outstanding!!! I am thinking about buying several more. Clean up is a breeze. Way to go Weber!! Excellent product.
Beer can chicken without the mess September 9, 2008

This is my second purchase of this item--as a gift for my son. Beer can chicken seems too unsanitary to me--do you really want a beer can with all that paint in your chicken? This way you can also use wine and what ever spices or herbs you like, and you are able to collect the gravy from the chicken instead of having it spill all over your grill. Go to the Weber site for slightly different cooking instructions from those included with the product.
Best beer can chicken roaster, period July 28, 2008
Larry Couden (Columbus, oh)
I have used several beer can type chicken roasters and this is by far the best. There is no chance for the chicken to tip over as the chicken fits firmly on the unit and is not top heavy as other roasters are. The chicken slides right up off the support with ease and is a breeze to clean up because of the no-stick suface of the roaster. I liked it so well I purchased another! This roaster can also be used in an oven.

I've had this for four or five years. It imparts all the flavor, and perhaps more, that you get from the original beer can chicken recipes without the hassle of trying to handle a chicken wobbling on a VERY HOT can, and no drip on the coals. Chicken is done in 45 minutes. Use Weber's recipes for a rub, buy one, or create your own. It's the best grill accessory I own. In fact, with this gold box deal, I'm getting a second one.....
