That frakkin' chicken recipe

Last night I tried a new recipe for roast chicken. I'd found the recipe in our daily paper. Never have had much luck with newspaper recipes, and this one was no exception. It took 6 tablespoons of butter and about 1.5 hours to make, and it didn't even turn out all that well.
Next time I'll skip the extra gourmet stuff and just make grilled chicken "sitting" (ahem) on a beer can, like the one pictured here.
