I don't know who's turn it is, and I don't care. If you don't like it, go pound salt.
And now, Guinness Chicken & Potatoes Au Gratin 
Guinness Chicken:
1 Chicken(3-4 pounds)
2 Pints Guinness(plus several more for drinking)
Salt and Pepper
2T Butter
Fresh Thyme
Fresh Rosemary
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
Paprika
1. Pull the guts outta the chicken and rinse inside and out. Then put it in a gallon zip bag with two pints of Guinness, a good dose of salt, and a fair bit of pepper. Seal it up and put it in the refrigerator for two days, turning occasionally.
2. On the day of cooking get a 12oz can, and cut the top off. Fill the can with the leaves of a couple sprigs of fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, and Guinness.
3. Get your grill set up for indirect cooking. Medium to medium-low heat on one side, and none on the other. Put the can in the birds bum and set it on the side of the grill with no heat on. To get it to sit up right use it's legs to form a sort of tripod. And you may find it easier to put the can in the bird without the beer, set it up, then pour the beer down it's upper hole into the can.
4. Close the lid and let it cook for 20-30 minutes. While that is going on, get a pan, add 2T butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika and mix well. How much you add is up to you, but I usually go with 2:1 garlic:onion, and enough paprika to give it a deep color.
5. After half an hour the bird will look something like this:
6. Spin the bird around so the side that wasn't facing the flames now faces it(180 degrees), then go ahead and baste the bird with the butter mix. Don't be shy about it either. Make more if need be.
7. Another 30 minutes(or 2-3 beers depending on how you track time) goes by and it looks something like this:
8. Spin it so the ass end is facing the flame now, and baste again.
9. Give it another 15-45 minutes(depending on your heat, and the size of the bird), and it should be done. Hopefully looking like this:
10. Take it off the grill, remove the can, put it on a plate, and let it rest 10-15 minutes.
Potatoes Au Gratin:
Enough potatoes to feed whoever is eating(usually 5-6 potatoes is good)
1/2 Red onion(more or less depending on what you like)
2T Butter
2T Flour
2C Milk
2C Aged Cheddar
1C Mozzerella
1/2C Peccorino Romano
1/2C Parmesean
Some day or two old bread
Salt and Pepper to taste
1. Heat oven to 425F.
2. Wash your potatoes, cut into chunks, then put in casserole dish. Then cut up some red onion, and mix it in with the potatoes.
3. Get the butter in a pan over medium heat.
4. Add the flour, whisk well.
5. Add the milk, mix well.
6. Let that heat up and thicken, then start adding the cheeses one by one until incorporated.
7. Add salt and pepper to taste, and mix once more.
8. Pour mixture over potatoes and onion, and put in oven.
9. Take some day old bread(I had some garlic-romano croutons I made the other day) and smash them up. I like to leave some bigger chunks, but you can do it however you like. Also, this is just about everyone's favorite part of the potatoes, so add a lot if you can.
10. After the potatoes have been in for about 40-50 minutes, take them out of the oven. Set oven to broil. Spread your crumbs all over the top, then dot with butter. You can add more cheese to the top if you want, but I usually don't.
11. Put back in the oven(with door cracked) until everything is golden toasty and delicious looking(~5 minutes). Take out and let cool for about 10 minutes.
Not too hard eh? Put the two together, and you've got a tasty meal with easy timing(to get both done together). Hope you all enjoy it.

No, says the man in Washington; it belongs to the poor.

No, says the man in Moscow; it belongs to everyone.

Be sure to let us know how it turns out. And what IPA do you have in mind?

Hi, I'm using a Summit Brewery IPA, its been marinating sense yesterday, and the grill is warming up right now. I have a can in which I put fresh rosemary, fresh chives, fresh basil oil some peppercorns and a bay leaf.
I've got alil pot I've used to melt down a stick of butter some paprika, cannabis, garlic, basil, chives, pepper salt. I also added bout a shot of IPA too the butter. For a well rounded flavor.

I just put the chicken in the refrigerator with the guinness in it today, so in a few days im gonna try this out. Just a question though, does the guinness flavor really get into the chicken? I was
thinking of poking holes in the chicken to try and get the guinness to penetrate into the chicken.
