Want to cook a 7lb beer butt chicken in oven. How long and at what temp should I cook at?!
How long should I cook a 7lb chicken in the oven? I'm going to cook it "beer butt" style so I'm not sure if this alters the standard time it takes to bake a chicken in the oven. Any suggestions on rubs would be appreciated as well =)

350 degrees, 25 minutes per pound....about 3 hours and 20 minutes.
Use a meat thermometer to make sure it's reached 165 - 170 degrees.
edit. You can do 375 or 350. The higher the temp, the more the outside will crisp as the inside gets cooked. Your main concern should be getting the itnernal temp to 165 or 170.
375 for 4 1/2 hrs with cajun rub
you cook it at 350 degree and for 2hrs
