I've heard great things about this but was scared off thinking the whole chicken might just explode all over my grill and deck. I even have Steve Raichlen's Beer Can Chicken cookbook (an excellent author - check out his grilling books) but the thought of exploding chicken just scares the socks right off me.
Have you ever had any chicken misadventures?
@samsteele - Is he same guy (deadpan demeanor, glasses) that has a cooking show called "Barbecue U?". Love that guy - he used to make some YUMMYMMYYYY looking stuff when I watched his shows on PBS on Sunday afternoons!I've heard great things about this but was scared off thinking the whole chicken might just explode all over my grill and deck.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER do that!
Now you're making me hungry I love beer can chicken.I think so! Very calm. Understated. But again, if you shove a beer can up into a chicken and stick it over gas heat then it's probably a good thing to be calm. And a little deadpan.

One final warning. If you don't know what wilkeliza is talking about, consider yourself blessed and make absolutely no attempt to find out. Ever.
I've got 48.6 miles in four days come January...
. I have a few running buddies trying to still talk me into it no matter how much I say I'm out of shape.
I'm one of those annoying people who has never really had any problem with his weight. Everybody told me it would catch up with me when I turned 30. Then they said 40. Well it finally started to creep up when I hit 50. I'm still wearing the same size clothing I wore in high school but I'm definitely bigger than I've ever been, which is a big deal to me. I've been quite regular with exercise but I know my eating habits in recent months haven't been great so I'm working on that now. I don't need to lose a lot - 5 to 10 pounds would be fantastic. I just worry as I get older due to family history and I want to try and avoid as much of that medical garbage as I can by taking good care of myself.
It will be my first full marathon. I ran my first half in January in WDW this year.You surely are Dopey
. Decided no time better then now to try and get things under control. Doctor says I really only need to lose 25 but I'd like 40.
I don't know which of you is right because unfortunately it's been my experience that a lot of my fellow doctors don't really give great advice in this department. That said, just make sure you are setting a realistic goal for yourself. Also, whatever goal you set, don't be disappointed or feel you've failed if you lose weight and get into a regular exercise routine but don't reach that target number. Better to lose 20 and be in better shape than to lose nothing and be sitting on the sofa every night.
I never had a real problem until I hit 25. I use to be able to eat whatever and still have a slim figure. Hit 25 and it has been downhill since
And I'll also say, as somebody who has struggled with their weight their entire life - the scale ain't the only # that's important either. I recently lost 40 lbs. this year, 80 since Nov. '14, but actually did it to improve my labs (triglycerides, Hba1c, glucose, etc.), more than anything, and I did, so that made me very happy, since I was in danger of having to start even MORE meds.
