1 whole Chicken
EVOO Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Whole Garlic bulb half crushed half whole
Slip some crushed Garlic under the breast skin -rub the chicken with the rest of the crushed garlicCrack 0pen the beer can, pour out about 1/2 cup of the beer into a Glass and drink it Add the remaining whole garlic cloves and rosemary.Hold the chicken above the can of beer and slide the chicken over the can. Fold the wings back behind the chicken. Make sure the legs are in front of the can, supporting the chicken. Place the chicken inside a pan. Stood Up – I now have a Beer-can chicken holder (Amazon)Place the pan on the grates of a hot BBQ, put lid on and cook the chicken until golden brown and the internal temperature registers 160 degrees F in the breast area and 175 degrees F in the thigh area on an instant-read thermometer, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the grill (be careful not to spill the contents of the beer can as it will be very hot) and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.I have been playing around with different flavorings you can add lemon or oranges to the can – plus different herbs

1lb Honeycomb tripe, washed
3 Medium Onions, sliced
1 Pint Milk
Pinch pepper and salt
1oz Butter
3 Tablespoon Plain flour
Put the tripe in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then drain and rinse under cold running water. Cut into 1 inch pieces.
Put the tripe, onions, milk, salt and pepper in the rinsed out pan. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for about 2 hours, until tender. Strain off the liquid and reserve.
Melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour and cook gently for 1 minute, stirring. Remove the pan from the heat and gradually stir in the reserved cooking liquid. Bring to the boil and continue to cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens. Add the tripe and onions and reheat.
Grandma served with crusty bread and butter to mop up the sauce
