Beer Can Chicken
The trouble with using Canadian beer for the chicken is that it gives you an irresistible urge to coat the chicken with peameal. Canadian beer used to be more potent and also use more malt and less corn sugar in the brewing. I don't think there's much to choose from now. Too bad!
We make a 30-minute canoe trip to S.W. Quebec several times a year but there's nobody there along our section of the river. Canoe is the only way to get there. There are a few leases of crown land in the 10's of thousand acres in the zecs and that kind of thins out the potential for living there.
Tabarnac is a kind of larch tree that turns golden in the fall. You could try putting Golden in the chicken if it’s still sold. Think I’ve got it right eh.
Last fall we bought a large BBQ. Looks like it’s made from 2’ diameter pipe with end caps welded on. It’s intended for wood rather than charcoal, and it seems like anybody using it should hold a stationary engineering license. A chicken should do well over a slow fire and under the hood, but I might give the beer a try.

Beer Can Chicken
Messing just a bit I'm afraid. Around here a tourist could easily conclude that us locals spend all our time talking about trees--well this is Canada after all. It's sort of funny to think about. Many tourists would have trouble understanding much of what is said whether it's in English, French or Algoniquin.
Around here for me is in Ontario about 15-minutes west of Rapides-des-Joachims (usually called Swisha), and I think of Temiscaming as SW Quebec. There's very little North of us until Val-d'Or, except of course logging roads and skidder trails.
I don't get around the Quebec bush roads much unless I'm with my brother in law who's a member of a zec. As you undoubtedly know, most of the roads are unmapped and you have to know exactly where you're going. There’s also usually a dozen ways to get to the same place, which also has great potential for going around in circles. Most of the time the best traveled road gets you nowhere, because it ends at a skidder yard and then it's a long drive back out.
I'm still learning the bush roads between the River and the Park in Ontario. I'll tackle the Quebec bush when I stop getting lost around here. Maybe later this summer we'll take a car ferry across the river from Deux-Rivieres. I don't have my good maps here and couldn't find Resevoir Taureau. Holding a lease on Crown land is a very lucky thing to happen.
