If you like yours spicier, increase amounts and play around with it. My hubby likes his food “uneventful” so I kept the spices on the lighter side.

The process may sound labor intensive but, really, it is not. The reason I started in the oven and moved the chicken to my grill is because of me!   I am notorious for starting something on the grill and getting caught up making sides indoors only to return and find it burned beyond recognition.

Rather than messing this up, I opted to reduce the outdoor cooking time. Everything came out great. Delicious!

Beer Marinated Chicken Recipe for Grilling

Ingredients
6 bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces
1 12 oz can of beer
1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp sea salt

Directions
Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl and add the raw chicken. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator 1-5 hours, prior to cooking.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Remove the chicken from the bowl (saving the marinade in the refrigerator) and put it on a foil-covered jelly roll pan.
Precook the chicken in the oven for 30 minutes.
Heat the grill for 5 minutes on high, before the 30 minutes is up.
Move the chicken to the hot grill.
Turn the pieces often to prevent burning.
Each time you turn the chicken, spoon a little marinade over it.
Test the chicken using a meat thermometer.
It is done when it reaches 190 degrees F.
Serve with salad and corn on the cob or any delicious side dish that your family loves!

Enjoy!
