Fox Run Beer Can Poultry Roaster Review

Update August 19, 2009 between the ///////

//////////////////////////////
The fox run was my first beer can rack.
Last week I bought by second rack from Bayou Classic 880 stainless steel.

If I would purchase a rack again for gift, it would be the fox run.
Very close in designing and size, but the fox run was better looking metal
and the opening was just a hair larger...could not tell from looking at it.

The stainless steel cup that I bought for the fox run rack, would not fit into the rack
from bayou classic
//////////////////////////////

Update:

The ONLY thing I did not like about this item was that there is no stainless can that came with it.
The stainless steel shaker from Wingate fits perfectly...also note that a Campbell's soup can WILL work.
Winware 10-Ounce Stainless Dredge

I tried others roaster and returned them because they were too tall and solid...that is the top of the can was near the top of the neck.

Product Description:
For a moist and flavorful chicken cooked in either the oven or on the barbecue use the Fox Run vertical beer can roaster. Cooking your chicken in this manner is healthy as oils and fats drip away, leaving the skin crispy and the meat succulent and tender from the beer.Be sure to use your own drip pan or roasting pan.

Charcoal Companion Non-Stick Vertical Poultry Roasting Wok Review

To fill in the blanks a bit on this roaster......
1) It has a non-stick surface making clean-up relatively easy. Just make sure, like with any non-stick cookware, that you use wood or plastic/rubber utensils and cleaning gear.

2) The device has its own canister for any liquids you wish to use. It has an extension as part of the canister that's perforated to let the steam saturate a larger area of the bird's inside cavity. I've not tried it yet, but am going to soak hickory chips in the canister ahead of cooking and then use a smaller amount of liquid. I'm hoping it will smoke the bird from the inside as well.

3) the base is perforated to drain away fats but lets enough remain to help baste any vegetables or other foods being cooked.

4) you want to bake indirectly with this, so plan on banking your coals to the sides of the grill. We used ours on a traditional Weber kettle grill that has baskets for the coals for indirect cooking.

5) cooking times are going to be dependent upon the fire and the bird's size, so use a meat thermometer and place it in a deep section of meat where it will read a core temp rather than surface.

6) there was plenty of room between the bird and the cover on our Weber kettle. Another style of charcoal grill might be different.

7) have a platter ready for when the cooking is done. Since the bottom of the roaster is perforated, it will drip grease anywhere you go if you just try to carry it. So, set the cooker, bird and all, on a platter to move it.

This is a nice improvement over the "beer can" method. It's sturdy and supports the bird nicely. The handles, when used with hot pads or mittens are, well, handy. It's a nice accessory for less than a $20 bill.
