boys if you haven't had this you haven't lived.
Weber Grill used to have this... oooo boy
Rub
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon granulated onion
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 whole chicken, 4 to 5 pounds
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 can (16 ounces) beer (tall boy)
1. In a small bowl combine the rub ingredients.
2. Remove and discard the neck, giblets, and any excess fat from the chicken. Rinse the chicken, inside and out, under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Lightly brush or spray all over with the vegetable oil and season, inside and out, with the rub.
3. Open the beer can and pour off half of the beer. Set the half-full can on a flat surface and slide the chicken over the top so the can fits inside the cavity. Transfer the bird to the grill, keeping the can upright. Carefully balance the bird on its two legs and the can. Grill over indirect medium heat (350°F to 450°F) until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 170?F in the breast and 180?F in the thickest part of the thigh, 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours. Keep the lid closed as often as possible during grilling.
4. Wearing barbecue mitts, carefully remove the chicken and the can from the grill, being careful not to spill the beer—it will be hot. Let the chicken rest for about 10 minutes before lifting it from the can. Discard the beer. Cut the chicken into serving pieces. Serve warm.
Makes 4 to 6 servings

Want to hear hilarious...I made a Memphis rub which had many of the same ingredients as Matt's but also had a little sugar, Brown Sugar and Cayenne Pepper. The rub was great.
I put the bird on the gas grill and got the temp to stay at 325 degrees. I came back 30 mins later to take a look and the temp was 150.wtf...crap out of propane. Went down the street got a refill and was back 15 minutes later. Crisis averted. It cooked completely in about 1.45 hours. I had a little issue removing the can. Note to self in future put vegetable oil on can to help remove. The bird was so tender that holding it and trying to get the can out caused the bird to rip..No big deal since it all goes down the same pipe!
I bring the chicken inside. My wife made a killer greek salad as a side dish. So I put the breast and one drumbstick on my plate and grabbed my salad bowl and a glass of water and what happens next??????
I dropped both fucking plates on the ground... Dinner ruined..I was so pissed..I cleaned up the huge mess with chicken and feta cheese everywhere, nibbled off the rest of the chicken and went to bed.
All in all chicken was good but I did not eat the best part...dammit still fuming.
2 hours work ruined. Next time rotisserie from Sams club
