Beer Can Chicken

This is a recipe that I came up with when making dinner for Travis's family.  His mom left me with a huge, organic chicken, and told me to get it in the oven somehow so we could eat it for lunch while she and others went out somewhere, I forget where.  So, I went a little nuts and came up with this, thanks to her poultry seasoning and chili powder being stored next to each other in her spice cabinet, and her willingness (or craziness) to let me loose in her kitchen.  Her reaction when she looked in the oven and saw the chicken sitting upright was one I won't forget!
