Insta Pot chicken

I have no idea what I'm doing but I just shoved a beer can up a chicken butt and about 45 minutes it should be delicious or horrible.

Update: 45 minutes is 25 minutes too long. That poor bird stood no chance.

@Penny I drank half of it so it should be good.

@Firegod74 well, if it's opened that might be interesting. did you poke holes in the can?

Firegod74 · 46-50, M

@Penny no. You just open the can and it basically bastes the chicken from the inside as the beer evaporates. It works great on a BBQ. I've only had the instpot since Christmas so I have no idea

@Firegod74 i wa sjust thinking itd be more effective if you poked holes in the side of the can (thats facing up at least)

@Penny we will see how this turns out. Next time I might put other stuff in the can and see what happens. Hot sauce, or lemon juice to make lemon chicken? I love to throw stuff together when cooking just to see what happens.

@Firegod74 i love chicken marinated in lemon juice., the acids make the meat more tender and i like the flavor too. stuff some lemon slices in it and on it?

@Penny next time I'll put lemon juice in the beer can then give the bird a light coating of olive oil and lemon pepper. That sounds really good.
