When I saw the word Shasta it caught my eye. My cat’s name is Shasta and her sister is named Pepsi (the shelter named them). Anyways, the recipe looks great. I looked at the poor cat after he got into the polyurethane. Quick thinking!

I found your blog after looking at Lindsey’s Better After.

This sounds yummy! I got to say, the photo with the chicken on the stand makes me laugh, looks so funny. I was also going to ask about the chicken butt stand but Amanda beat me to it. Thanks for the link. :) When I get a chance to try this out I’ll link you.

Good to know about the flavor!!

That contraption is an honest-to-god Beer Can Chicken stand. I bought it somewhere years ago I think, and this was its maiden use. They are really, really cheap:

Ooh, so glad you tried the chicken molestation recipe, and it looks gorgeous! I’m very jealous/impressed with that fancy contraption you have to hold the can — is that a special beer butt chicken holder or a DIY contraption you can teach me to make?

BTW, I did some online research and apparently some very dedicated griller did an experiment where he made the chicken with a can of beer, a can of something else (wine? soda?), and a can of water, and it basically all tasted the same. I think the liquid just steams the chicken from the inside, but doesn’t leave much of a flavor. I tried it once with wine, though, and it didn’t taste nearly as good.
