Put some vegetable oil on your bird and season it up however you want (start with store-bought poultry seasoning if you're not sure how to create a "rub", or use the internet-thingy to get a decent "rub" recipe.
Pop open a can of beer (or cola), pour out about 1/3, then stick the can into the cavity opening so your bird is "standing" upright. Put this on your grill and cook low and slow until done. I've never had this technique fail to yield great results.
What is this "internet-thingy" of which you speak?
Pour out about 1/3 of a can of beer? Isn't that being very wasteful? Shouldn't one drink the beer, rather than wasting it? Or, at least use it to water the grass, if it's cheap beer.
