I've heard for a long time about "Beercan Chicken" but never knew anyone that made it. While we were at my brother's last weekend, the two "Howard's" decided to make it. (My DH and brother are both named Howard.) For one they used a hot sauce mixture in the can and for the other a balsamic vinegar. It was so yummy and moist. They also cooked about 45 pounds of Boston Butt for bbq and then chopped it and put it in the freezer to have later in the winter. Of course, you can use any aluminum can you have, soda, beer, juice, or whatever and use whatever liquid you want for seasoning. They even have cookbooks out just for beercan chicken. They look so cute sitting up there that I'm thinking of seeing if I can work that into a quilt somehow.
On a quilting note, I did get to one of the quilt shops in Knoxville yesterday, Mammaw's Thimble. If you like '30's fabrics, this is the place to go. They have the largest selection I've ever seen in one place. I went for batting and wound up getting a dozen FQ's of the 30's to use in the graduation quilt for one of the DGD's. I just found out that she is going to be graduating a year early so I now need two graduation quilts in May instead of one. One wants a rubber duck theme and the other wants SunBonnet Sue. Better get busy.
