Its expected, its like oil or tire threads, on the motorcycle forum I'm on. As winter goes on and it comes to an end its all this pent up frustration of not being able to get out and hit the road. I assure you soon we will be back to normal, what ever that is? LOL

Dave, Don't look at it as wasting a can of beer on a chicken.  You will still get a lot of it when you eat the nice tender moist chicken.  And a second or third still in the bottle will go nicely as an accompaniment.  

As for the plastic resins, plasticizers, polymers and such, I already am starting to feel like a Gunther von Hagens Body Works exhibit as it is.  

I have to confess, I've only made rubs from internet recipes.  I'll have to try some of the Webber.  Our biggest problem is getting the chicken to sit upright in the Smokey Joe and keeping it burning hot enough for long enough.  With the full size Webber, it's a breeze, but I don't want to lug that thing along on a trip.

When I BBQ chicken, I use a little of the Weber Beer Can Chicken seasoning:


And to zing it up a bit, I use a little bit of this:

Haven’t you learned by now its better living through chemicals! I’m hoping that my many years of ingesting polymer compounds have more or less embalmed my body and ensured for me a long life!

I also do a mean beer can chicken that even Typhoid Mary would be proud of but the trouble is getting up the nerve to sacrifice a good beer into the chicken gut and not mine! Tongue

You are absolutely right, Texman.  That's just one more risk we have to take.  And that plastic leaches into the water and we drink that stuff.  It isn't good for us.  Personally, I'd use glass jars to carry my water, but they're way too heavy and break easily posing a laceration risk, as well as making a big mess.  

Dang, sometimes I get the impression that someone is trying to kill me.  Shocked 
Worst part is, you may not know who they is. Ouch

 

We have been carrying stainless water bottles for some time. Way lighter than glass, and they won't leach like any plastic.

Anything really fun involves some risk taking. 

I'm happy to be a bit risk averse when it comes to what I eat and drink. I'm not a gourmet, if its wholesome and savory I'll eat it and then happily eat the same thing again the next day. 

I'll save up my risk taking for flying around in the clouds in little airplanes and other things that are really fun for me.
