A whole chicken just perched on a beer can on the grill is something you’ll never really un-see.
But for all the silly spectacle that is beer can chicken – it also creates some of the most moist meat you’ll ever have.
Chef Ryan Wiebe uses our Spiceology X Voodoo Ranger beer-infused Sweet & Souar blend (and of course a can of IPA) for this peak summertime grill out.

Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
-
2 tablespoons paprika
-
1 tablespoon Spiceology Pumpkin Spice
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
-
1 teaspoon mustard powder
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon chipotle powder
- 1/4 cup melted butter
-
1/2 cup Frank’s RedHot Original Sauce
-
2 tablespoons Spiceology Pumpkin Spice
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 cup roasted pumpkin seeds (optional)
Rub
Sauce
Directions
- Separate the wings and pat them dry. This will ensure that they are super crispy.
Combine the spices for the rub, then apply to the wings. Season them at least 30 minutes ahead of time, up to overnight in the fridge uncovered. Remove them from the fridge at least 30 minutes before you’re ready to cook them.
Preheat your smoker to 250°F. If using a grill, preheat for indirect cooking.
- Place the wings on the grill and cook them for 45 minutes undisturbed.
- Add the sauce ingredients together in a small saucepan on med-low heat, stirring to melt together. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
After 45 minutes, crank up the grill to 425°F. Let the wings grill at high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, flipping as needed to prevent charring. Glaze the wings lightly with some of the sauce as you flip them.
Grill until at least 175°F with an instant-read thermometer when inserted into the thickest portion of each piece.
- Remove the cooked wings from the grill and toss in a bowl with the rest of the sauce. Top with roasted pumpkin seeds as an option.
