tjones330@... who said: oh WOW!! i SOOOO need this book. I'm a big fan on these authors, but have just started getting into OAMC. This sure would be a great guide!
Congrats tjones, I've emailed you, so be sure to check your email and get back with me. If I don't hear back from tjones by next week, I'll pick a new winner. Again, thanks to everyone that entered!
Now, onto the recipe for the day! I was on CafeMom, in one of my groups and someone mentioned using soda in "beer can" chicken. Since I don't drink alcohol, I thought this idea was awesome! So, I used root beer to make "soda can" chicken! It was really simple!! I know that in the original recipe it says to do this on the grill, but it's starting to get cold and windy out here (well, it's always windy out here) so I decided to make it inside in my oven! So, this recipe isn't really a recipe, but more of a technique. Either way, I hope you try it soon!! Oh, and I used root beer, but you could also use sprite or coke, maybe even dr. pepper or mt. dew! Try it out and see how your family likes it!
Soda Can Chicken
1 whole chicken
1 12 oz. can soda of your choice
seasonings of your choice, I used My Go To Seasonings
Preheat an oven to 375° F.
Season the chicken with the seasonings of your choice, be sure to season generously. Open the can of soda and pour out about half of the soda into a glass and save for another use or drink it! Place the soda can onto a baking pan or roasting pan that is large enough to collect any juices that might come out of the chicken. Carefully put the can of soda into the bottom of the chicken and sit it upright on the baking pan. Be sure that your oven racks are low enough that the chicken will fit into it while standing. Place the chicken into the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through, about and hour to an hour and half, depending on how large your chicken is. Enjoy!

This looks so delicious! I cant wait for the weekend and I might have to give it a try!
I just made this using 1/2 can diet lemon lime soda and then I filled the can the rest of the way full with bbq sauce. In the end we dumped what was left in the can over the sliced chicken and it turned out wonderful! I also heard this was great with dr. pepper.
Good idea with the bbq sauce heidi!! I'm going to try that soon!!
I am going to have to try this one...i myself do not drink alcohol so the soda is a good idea....thanks for sharing!
I had no idea you could sub the beer for soda, or that you could do it in the oven! Amazing!
Thanks for sharing.
