With the Charcoal Companion Stainless Beer Can Chicken Rack it couldn't be simpler. Place open beer can in center of rack, raise the two arms up to hold the can in place and place chicken over the rack and can. Perforated bottom allows heat direct from the grill. As the chicken grills the liquid steams the poultry from the inside out. You can use any liquid in a soda or beer can: beer, wine, fruit juice or your favorite basting recipe.
