Griller beware: many cans have bisphenol A in the inside coating.

Bisphenol A is an endocrine disruptor – higher rates of testicular cancer, lower virility, lower male birth rates, and smaller reproductive organs in male babies.

Nasty stuff.

Canada has banned it in baby bottles and it has been phased out of many products. The U.S. FDA so far has ignored scientific studies linking it to health risks (yeah, shocking, eh?).

I’m not sure it’s on the inside of all beer cans. Or what it does for the flavor.

Though burning/heating the paint on the can as well probably doesn’t add much good.

Bon appetit!

Actually, once the Foster’s can catches a little chicken fat and spice rub it will be considerably more tasty.

About Dale’s Pale Ale… I wrote the column before there was good canned beer. Haven’t made a beer can chicken in a while. Next time I do, I most certainly will use a canned craft bee, probably 21st Amendment Brew Free or Die IPA or Uncommon Brewers Siamese Twins Belgian-style Double.

About the beer can brace…Cabelas’ can be ordered from their Web site: http://www.cabelas.com/prod-1/0014342515356a.shtml

I love the Cornish hens in the can of Fosters! Since you shared your embarrassing story with us (again) I should share mine:
