Beer Butt Chicken and new Stitching area

Here is my wonderful recliner!!  I love this recliner however, I have sat and stitched in for so long it has sunk in so low that it actually HURTS to sit in it.  I know I just need to take the foam out and replace it but for now I need a stitching area......


So I moved over my chaise lounge.  Can you tell my stitching area is a disaster?????  I love it though...this chair is so comfy and my dog Brigen can sit on it with me comfortably.  There are 3 stitching bags...the one closest to my chair is my Sistine Chapel project, the next one is my HUGE project tote...these are my thirty one bags.  My friend, Shari, sells thirty one so if you need a new stitching bag, then contact her!!!  She will hook you up with something awesome!!!!!


My friend, Berly, had a Pampered Chef party last month and I saw this in the catalog....wondering what it is???  It is a Beer Butt Chicken/Veggie holder for the grill!!!!  My DH LOVES to grill.....so I bought him a toy.  You DO NOT need this to make this chicken....check out the recipe below for tips on how to make without the cool toy.....


You just pop open a beer...we actually had to borrow a beer for this because Arkansas state law states that you cannot buy beer on Sunday.  We aren't big drinkers and don't keep beer in the house. So Mark borrowed a beer from one of his golfing buddies.  Pour out  or drink 1/4 of the can and place it in the can holder...


Slide the chicken butt first onto the can.....We used this RECIPE HERE for the seasoning


Here is our little bird cooking away...doesn't he look yummy????  We use a charcoal grill for our bird


Mark cut the poor bird open before I got a pretty picture....this one looks like carnage has happened!  It was very juicy and yummy!!!!!

We have one of those and they make the best chicken on the braai. But they work almost as well in the oven.

We made beer can chicken on the grill last night!! It was awesome! My hubby did a Texas style rub on it-it was so moist and tasty. I know we will be doing it again.

That Chicken Butt thingie looks like a great gift for my boyfriend, who seems to BBQ every meal. The pictures are luscious!
