After reading the previous post regarding DME battered fried chicken I thought I'd experiment with a beer can chicken I made tonight.
It didn't quite turn out as I had expected.
I had visions of this nice shiny sweet complex glaze coating a succulently moist chicken: tender, intriguing, daring. I got something that looked like it had been coated with flour and gypsum before being exposed to an oxy-acetylene torch.
Tasted ok though.
