That looks amazing, and I need to try this soon. I fell in love with Dr. Pepper when I visited my grandparents in Houston when I was little. I didn’t grow up in Texas, but it’s been home for almost 20 years.
Awesome history Matt. So much we never knew and I'm 63 and grew up drinking Dr. Pepper. Thanks so much for extra effort, it says so much about you and your convictions.
Beer can chicken is for real.. The years I’ve been making it I’ve found that if you cut a potato into a wedge to fit snug in the neck cavity it will prevent the beer/soda from evaporating through the chicken it will help keep all the moisture within the chicken.. You must try;) enjoy..
It’s great if you don’t season it like an asshole. I guarantee you that chicken was salty from all the salt based EVERYTHING he seasoned it with and crept the beer. Lord have mercy. Good til your ankles are bigger than your neck.
Lmfao judges bbq?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA don’t throw us such bullshit. Tell us what it actually is. You say judges best and then talk shit about the bbq and then talk good about it again? Juicy? Easy. Taste not salty af and not be bribed like some sourpuss old Navy Vet? C’mon brotha!
Why do you think it's real? It literally isn't and you get zero beer flavor due to none of it penetrating into the chicken at any point. Roasting a chicken upright on a beer can is one of the worst possible ways you can roast a chicken.
I just made your DrPepper bbq sauce. I happened to be cooking bacon at the same time. I added 1/4 cup bacon grease to the recipe. Knocked it out of the park! 🎉🎉🎉
Hey Matt, we finally got around to this tonight, and it was absolutely delicious!! Thank you for what you do sir !!! Best in the business hands down !!!
I did the same chicken today. I followed your recipe that was awesome I got a lot of compliments on how juicy and flavorful the chicken was thank you for your video
Just made this last night and it was AMAZING! The Sauce was SO good that I am seriously thinking about taking what I have left, adding more brown sugar and glazing my Easter ham with it! Good and Pretty
I found Dr. Pepper made with cane sugar at my local Kroger and had all the rest of the ingredients on hand so, that was my Sunday project. Followed the recipes exactly and it all came out great. I used straight Hickory pellets in my Traeger which added to the sweet flavor the Dr. Pepper sauce gave the chicken. I think brining the chicken helps keep the meat moist through the smoking process.
My husband and I smoked an approximately 5lb Dr Pepper chicken last night. It was absolutely delicious! Definitely a great alternative to beer can chicken! Will definitely be making again!
I remember passing through Dublin, Texas as a kid many times and we would always stop and stock up on Dublin Dr. Pepper. Sadly, the plant closed down when I was in high school. Nothing beat an ice cold Dublin Dr. Pepper on a summer night.
Made the Dr Pepper Sauce today! Had to substitute The regular W Sauce for W Sauce FIRESHIRE. Absolutely Great taste. Just the right amount of heat for my family. Love the Meat Church channel !
I bet you don't hate that. I'd love to see some more wild game, fish and seafood on future videos. I bet a lot of us in here are hunters and fishers, and would love to see ways to cook our catches.
I think fox bros was on a list of best bbq in each state I read recently. If I recall they had a picture of their chicken fried ribs that made me want to leave work and drive for a day to eat there!
I went to Fox Bros back in 2016. Had no idea they were from Texas that’s why it was so good!🤣 got some fried okra and two buddies from Indiana that were with me had never even heard of okra, so I made ‘em try it! They liked it! One of them loved it🤣
Matt, I love your videos, Brother. I had to laugh out loud today at the captions about the origin of Dr Pepper. Before the last caption appeared, I asked the question out loud in an empty office, "did it work?" Then, your answer. Please, keep putting out this great content!
Great video, as always! My family moved to Dublin when I was 10 years old and I lived there until I graduated. What Dr Pepper did to Dublin is a tragedy. Thanks for shining the spotlight on my home town! As for video ideas, I would love to see a video for a Surf & Turf dinner (steak and lobster).
I think that doing some videos using beef roasts would be awesome. I'm from the midwest and the standard up here is to put roasts in the crock pot, but I know that the meat church flair would bring things up a notch!
so i did this recipe today. literally just finished eating. chicken was 6 lbs. fed 2 adults and 2 kids. might have a 1/2 lb of meat left. Oh my goodness! The best smoked chicken i have ever had. I made the sauce too but used a little apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, ground mustard. Holy shoot! Love your channel!
I grew up in Texas but didn't really have great BBQ until I moved to the Southeast, especially Mississippi. Everyone has a cooking rig and everyone is expert level.
Did a Dr Pepper chicken in a bbq school here in AZ and it was great. I was making potato skins not long ago and decided to use the left over potatoes to stuff bell peppers. Mixed the potatoes with sour cream, cheese, and bacon bits. Topped with skirt steak and cheese. I was curious to see someone else’s thoughts on the idea. The skins were also topped with skirt steak, which turned out great.
I found your channel yesterday and realized that so long as I continue to be a man who's never owned a smoker it would be too painful to watch your content, so today I got materials and tomorrow I'm going to start building me a smoker. I think I may binge your continent a bit. 😁
Just a thought this is my grandfather recipe for beer can chicken soak the chicken 24 hr in Buttermilk as the brine. Also, putting a potato in the neck cavity and seasoning inside and outside of the chicken, then placing on indirect heat on a BBQ. I just bought my first pellet smoker a year ago, so I'm new to smoking and would like to say thank you, Matt, at Meat Church for the great videos and tips and tricks.
Beer Can chicken is a REAL thing! I've tried it with white and thyme and rosemary, I've done several different styles of beer from Bud to Spacedust IPA to Guinness. Every single one was great in it's own way. Keep up the great work!
Needed a last-minute dinner and had a chicken in the fridge so I decided to try this recipe. Except, of course, I didn’t have a Dr. Pepper, and I had no time for a brine, and I had to apply the Texas Sugar to the chicken right out of the cold box. Disaster? Turns out no! Substituted Mexican Coke for Dr. Pepper, and put it on the pellet grill. Using a porcelain throne as shown in the video, this was the juiciest, tastiest, chicken I’ve ever cooked. Would the skin have been crispier if I’d let it dry out in the fridge? Probably. But don’t be afraid to skip the brine because the breast meat literally wept moisture when you cut into it. Thanks Matt!!
Best beer can chicken I ever made was camping, over wood, on my friends home made 50gal barrel Santa Maria grill with wood we collected from around the property. Oddly, the wood was pine. but with a proper coal bed it was damn good.. Have fun cooking outside!
Another great video, Matt! I've been curious about beer can chicken vs Dr. Pepper so now I know. May try this weekend as I have a couple of whole chickens in my freezer.
As a devoted member of your flock... man this looks like another winner. My son is on a chicken-free lent period now, but as soon as Easter is over, I'm bringing the Dr. for the next meal right after. Damn it looks good!
Did this tonight, absolutely fabulous. Did the red pepper flske to offset some of the sweet. Perfect combo. Definitely a winner winner chicken dinner 7:28
I'm a little late to the game, but after watching this video, I checked out the Dr Pepper Doc. Very interesting and I think Dublin got screwed also. Love your videos. I use to be anti-pellet grill and was charcoal and stick burner only. I purchased a Traeger 34 on labor day. Since then I have bought all the Meat Church seasonings except 2. They are all spot on and very versatile.
Matt, my wife and I attended the Ft Worth Music Festival a few weeks ago and ate at the H3 Steakhouse. I had their Pork Tacos and my first thought was “These are amazing”. My second thought was “I think I can make these”. They use a “smoked salsa” and I had recently watched your video on making that. They used rotisserie cooked pork, but why not use pulled pork? You recently used Cholula sauce as a binder and this weekend I used it on a couple of pork butts and used Holy Cow for my seasoning. After pulling and shredding the pork I seasoned it with my own BBQ sauce which is very similar to your Dr Pepper Sauce (mine has some mustard, ground ginger, diced onion and diced pineapple), using just enough that you can taste some sweetness. Your smoked salsa was perfect and put these tacos over the top. I can’t wait to smoke another Pork Butt and try this with the Dr Pepper BBQ Sauce!
A good idea besides just recipes would be maybe talking about different types of firewood and what they do with flavor profiles on different types of me. As always thanks for the concert. Love from Fort Worth
As a Tulsa, Ok. resident back in the day, late 60's- early70's my dad and his friends had a regular run to Texas to buy a trunk full of Dublin Dr. Pepper. There's nothing else like it! Now I'm a Texas resident, and have easy access to pure cane sugar Dr. Pepper, and Mexican Coke. They're both delicious 😊
There are two sodas that I prefer. Dr. Pepper and Cheerwine. Cheerwine is a local Salisbury NC beverage. Just up the road a little is the epicenter of NC pulled pork barbecue Lexington. For a long time that was the only style barbecue I would eat. Then I found good brisket and they are both out of this world. I really enjoy what you do on this channel. I suggest maybe obtain some Cheerwine and do an episode with that. Thanks, for all you do.
Ran across Italian sausage cooking method where you precook (on grill or off) in Apple Cider vinegar, brown sugar, bell peppers and Red onions in aluminum pan. Once sausage and peppers finished, grill sausage. Once grilled, put the sausage back into the juices of the pan for the moist and flavorful Italian sausage sandwich with peppers and onions… red sauce/mozzarella is optional topper
Hey, Matt, another great video for inspiration. You asked for suggestions for future videos. I'd love to see a Meat Church take on tacos al pastor. Keep up the great work!
Yeah every time and you don't disappoint It's the beginning of Spring but about to get that grill going right now Love the vlogs you always have some awesome recipes keep it up
I have a Dr Pepper BBQ sauce recipe that I have used for a number of years. I normally use it for ribs and as a side for brisket. I've even modified it a little to make a honey bourbon version. So good. I haven't tried them on chicken yet though. Nice work. Love the channel.
@@MeatChurchBBQ Put that DP BBQ sauce on salt and pepper ribs tonight. Can confirm, it's one of the best sauces I've ever had - subbed The Gospel for Holy Cow.
Back when we were apartment living, and I couldn't grill/bbq, Wifey used to make Crock Pot Ribs basted in Dr Pepper and Spicy Sweet Baby Ray's. They were the best ribs not bbq I ever had. And better than most restaurant bbq ribs even. Still use Dr Pepper as a glaze for ribs. Not surprised it works for chicken too.
I’m going to try this this weekend! My oldest daughter’s best friend (like another daughter, actually) is a Dr Pepper FREAK. I’ll have to have her over for this. Sounds amazing….
You are so right about Fox Bros Bar-B-G. When we pick up out of town visitors from the ATL airport, Fox Bros is the first stop. Your followers can easily find them from the airport. If the weather holds in Marietta, GA this weekend your Dr. Pepper chicken will be on my Traeger.
First video of yours that I've watched. Thought I would share a hot sauce recipe. Hot sauce recipe. Half pound of hot peppers. I usually grow my own tabasco peppers, but choose what you like. 1 whole garlic 1 tablespoon salt 1/8 cup honey 1 can of pineapple chunks 1 bell pepper Throw all of it in a blender then fill the blender with vinegar. Blend it up and enjoy. Make close to 2 quarts of hot sauce.
Love,love,love the idea of saving the beer for the chef, I’ve always wanted to try this method! The truck is getting the chicken skin crispy? I want to mention that we really love the Texas sugar rub as well Matt!! Thanksgiving bird was dry-brined with a little kosher salt and Texas sugar, turned out phenomenal!! Great video Matt
You didn't even debate if the beer can adds moisture. It's just "its a thing"! LOL I ran 3 chickens in my smoker two weeks ago. 2 of them had beer cans, one didn't. They literally all went on at the same time. They were rotated 3 times to keep the cook as even as possible. The one that wasn't purched on a can was noticeably less juicy and moist. That one was the BEST of the thee (due to the Tanoori Masala seasoning blend used) but it was drier than the other two for sure!
I just made that bbq sauce and holy hell that is damn good, subtly sweet with the Dr. Pepper flavor with the right amount of heat to let you know it’s there, amazing sauce indeed
Wow! Bottled Up 👏🏻👏🏻 💯 Now I feel bad for buying corporate cane sugar DP for this recipe 😂 BUT I will make sure to keep supporting Dublin Bottling Works
The seasonings are so good when I cook with them which is everytime I grill , I dip my finger in them and eat it off my finger, never done that with other seasonings
New subscriber, watched the video yesterday, smoking the bird today and doing a Chuck roast with the fajita and holy gospel…would love to see a play on doing an entire holiday meal on the smoker, side burner or even a Mother’s Day themed thing for the wife so she can chill and I can throw down on the smoke
Just found your channel today. I will have to try your Dr. Pepper sauce it sounds GOOD. Watched the Dublin Dr Pepper trailer. I live in Michigan, and we had a similar thing with the bottlers in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Everyone had switched over to 20 oz plastic bottles, and changed their formula to a corn syrup blend. Pepsi was the worst as they went to all corn syrup. The bottlers in the U.P. kept 16 oz glass bottles and used all sugar mixes. People would take weekend trips to the U.P. , and come back with pickup loads of soda. Coca Cola, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, and Dr. Pepper were the most sought after. Eventually Coca Cola and Pepsi threatened to dis franchise all the bottlers in the U.P. if they didn't convert to 20 oz bottles and change their mixes. Now they make a Real Sugar blend for Mountain Dew and Pepsi but they still don't taste the same. Maybe it was that Upper Peninsula / Lake Superior water. Like your videos. They are well done. Have you done any videos on Bison? It is a dry meat, so it takes extra work to keep it juicy.
Wow, super cool note. Thanks for being here! We do not have a bison video yet. Make sure to cook it slightly under the desired temp that you like so it doesn't dry out.
Firstly great video, really enjoyed it. In response to your reflection request I would like to put forward Mojo Ribs. It’s marinated in an incredible mojo marinade but then smoked & finished off to be what I would term a wet rib. I love them. Cheers Al
huh. Was just visiting some friends in Atlanta last week. They were telling me about making a Dr. Pepper chicken. And we went to Fox Bros. Then i stumble upon this video. What’re the odds? Guess I’ll have to try this soon!
Grew up with Dublin Dr Pepper..... made a grown man cry when they had to stop. Can't wait to try this.
That looks amazing, and I need to try this soon. I fell in love with Dr. Pepper when I visited my grandparents in Houston when I was little. I didn’t grow up in Texas, but it’s been home for almost 20 years.

Dang!
My boy just got done cooking some bacon so I saved some of the grease and I’m going to try it tonight on my Dr. Pepper chicken🔥🔥🔥
I'm an avid recipe follower of yours and have never been disappointed. We really like Dr. Pepper, so I can't wait to give this one a try.
Hey Matt, we finally got around to this tonight, and it was absolutely delicious!! Thank you for what you do sir !!! Best in the business hands down !!!
I did the same chicken today.
I followed your recipe that was awesome I got a lot of compliments on how juicy and flavorful the chicken was thank you for your video
Sounds great!
Georgian here... Fox Bros BBQ is indeed the best here, and I've tried a looot of BBQ here.
Just made this last night and it was AMAZING! The Sauce was SO good that I am seriously thinking about taking what I have left, adding more brown sugar and glazing my Easter ham with it! Good and Pretty
I lived in Atlanta for 15 years. Now live in Indy but miss Fox Bros.
I agree save the beer for drinking, I used root beer to smoke my chicken, in a offset grill !! Loved the video, awesome content !!
I found Dr. Pepper made with cane sugar at my local Kroger and had all the rest of the ingredients on hand so, that was my Sunday project. Followed the recipes exactly and it all came out great.

WOW I love the color and that bad boy! Looks amazin have a great day Matt keep up the awesome vids.
What a great, informative, well produced video. Ms. Church would agree, I’m sure.
I would love to see some more smoked and grilled fish videos. Grilled Salmon from your summer series is one of my family's favorites!
I second this. I could see some tuna steaks with Holy Cow
Fish tacos. Yes!!!! This needs to be addressed by Meat Church for sure. Fried and grilled.
Some different recipes on Redfish would be awesome
I remember passing through Dublin, Texas as a kid many times and we would always stop and stock up on Dublin Dr. Pepper. Sadly, the plant closed down when I was in high school. Nothing beat an ice cold Dublin Dr. Pepper on a summer night.
Just did this recipe. The sauce was amazing and the bird was great!
Just made this and it was amazing!!!! Love your recipes
Made the Dr Pepper Sauce today! Had to substitute The regular W Sauce for W Sauce FIRESHIRE. Absolutely Great taste. Just the right amount of heat for my family. Love the Meat Church channel !
So I tried this tonight, Wow it was great. Chicken was tender a juicy the sauce is great, glad I made big batch. Thanks Matt.
I've made many beer can chickens with Rainier on a Weber charcoal.Always delicious. Thanks for sharing bud
I use Dr Pepper for my jerkey marinate. Amazing!!
I bet you don't hate that. I'd love to see some more wild game, fish and seafood on future videos. I bet a lot of us in here are hunters and fishers, and would love to see ways to cook our catches.

I'm from outside of Chicago, I've been throwing beef roasts on the smoker for a couple years now! Always a good idea.
Yes
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist9 Jesus is my favorite Mexican!! I didn't know he said that!
I do pulled pork with A&W Rootbeer and it turns out amazing
@@kray421 Omg you have my full attention with that
This was awesome thanks so much for sharing. And you are right the sauce is killer
so i did this recipe today. literally just finished eating. chicken was 6 lbs. fed 2 adults and 2 kids. might have a 1/2 lb of meat left. Oh my goodness! The best smoked chicken i have ever had.

Yes sir Iowa fav! Doing it well again and again for your thing !!!
I grew up in Texas but didn't really have great BBQ until I moved to the Southeast, especially Mississippi. Everyone has a cooking rig and everyone is expert level.
Just watched this and then the Dublin documentary, thanks for sharing the link. I'm now a former Dr. Pepper fan. I'll you Fred Meyer's Dr.K!
Cooked Mexican brisket twice… so good. I even bought a traeger 780 because of your advice.

My wife and I were just talking about doing a whole chicken, and since we are, this will be the recipe we go with. Chicken looks great
Sounds great!
Doing this one tonight. I have bewn following you channel and using your peoducts and recipes. They are excellent. Thank you Matt your awesome.
Hope you enjoy!
@Meat Church BBQ It was amazing. Meat church is my go to.
Finally made this and wow is it good! The sauce in particular is delicious!!
Tried the Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce on my ribs over Easter. It had an awesome flavor.

Thanks Kylie!
I’ve used the bird bath every thanksgiving for years and it is always top tier.
I never rinse it I just pat it dry.
I love that!
I quit drinking Coke for Dr. Pepper about a year ago...and have done stuff with Cheerwine. Absolutely going to do this. Props Matt!!!
LOVE Cheerwine.
I've been cooking my poultry and meat in Dr Pepper for at least 10 years. It's the bomb. It's the best.
I have a Dr Pepper BBQ sauce recipe that I have used for a number of years. I normally use it for ribs and as a side for brisket. I've even modified it a little to make a honey bourbon version. So good. I haven't tried them on chicken yet though. Nice work. Love the channel.
What’s the recipe? I’ve been looking for a good DP sauce recipe
Don't tease 😢 sharing is caring
Right on time! I was just considering what to cook this evening !
Perfect!
@@MeatChurchBBQ Put that DP BBQ sauce on salt and pepper ribs tonight. Can confirm, it's one of the best sauces I've ever had - subbed The Gospel for Holy Cow.

You gotta come north to Lafayette and try Wardlaw’s. It’s seriously Texas good.
I do a ham with ginger snaps and dr. Pepper, comes out amazing.
Tried it tonight amazing.. Will be doing it again
NICE!!
I would love to see you guys do a compilation of beginners tips for offset smoking.
First video of yours that I've watched. Thought I would share a hot sauce recipe.
Hot sauce recipe.
Half pound of hot peppers. I usually grow my own tabasco peppers, but choose what you like.
1 whole garlic
1 tablespoon salt
1/8 cup honey
1 can of pineapple chunks
1 bell pepper
Throw all of it in a blender then fill the blender with vinegar.
Blend it up and enjoy.
Make close to 2 quarts of hot sauce.
Love,love,love the idea of saving the beer for the chef, I’ve always wanted to try this method! The truck is getting the chicken skin crispy? I want to mention that we really love the Texas sugar rub as well Matt!! Thanksgiving bird was dry-brined with a little kosher salt and Texas sugar, turned out phenomenal!! Great video Matt
If you’re using a pellet grill try cooking at 375-400 for a crispier skin. And don’t baste the outside during the cook. Just season it and let it ride
Dry brine, higher cook temp, no sauce for crispy skin if that is your goal.
@@MeatChurchBBQ thank you, I usually smoke chicken at 250-275, thought that would’ve been hot enough but you are the man so I’ll go hotter
You didn't even debate if the beer can adds moisture.
It's just "its a thing"! LOL
I ran 3 chickens in my smoker two weeks ago. 2 of them had beer cans, one didn't. They literally all went on at the same time. They were rotated 3 times to keep the cook as even as possible. The one that wasn't purched on a can was noticeably less juicy and moist. That one was the BEST of the thee (due to the Tanoori Masala seasoning blend used) but it was drier than the other two for sure!
I didn't know the Fox brothers were from Texas. Makes sense now that their brisket is so good
I just made that bbq sauce and holy hell that is damn good, subtly sweet with the Dr. Pepper flavor with the right amount of heat to let you know it’s there, amazing sauce indeed
Anything that saves beer… Thats rite..!!! You got my attention.,. Great info !
Wow! Bottled Up 👏🏻👏🏻 💯
Now I feel bad for buying corporate cane sugar DP for this recipe 😂 BUT I will make sure to keep supporting Dublin Bottling Works
I would love to see more BBQ sauce recipes using Meat Church seasoning.
The seasonings are so good when I cook with them which is everytime I grill , I dip my finger in them and eat it off my finger, never done that with other seasonings
Looks delicious, will definitely be trying this one.
New subscriber, watched the video yesterday, smoking the bird today and doing a Chuck roast with the fajita and holy gospel…would love to see a play on doing an entire holiday meal on the smoker, side burner or even a Mother’s Day themed thing for the wife so she can chill and I can throw down on the smoke
Deciding to let the chicken soak in the brine was an excellent decision for extra moisture. Great job once again bro!!!!
Thanks!
Would like to see a small tour of the outside meat church kitchen. Great videos by the way!
This sauce is awesome!!!
Just found your channel today. I will have to try your Dr. Pepper sauce it sounds GOOD. Watched the Dublin Dr Pepper trailer. I live in Michigan, and we had a similar thing with the bottlers in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Everyone had switched over to 20 oz plastic bottles, and changed their formula to a corn syrup blend. Pepsi was the worst as they went to all corn syrup. The bottlers in the U.P. kept 16 oz glass bottles and used all sugar mixes. People would take weekend trips to the U.P. , and come back with pickup loads of soda. Coca Cola, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, and Dr. Pepper were the most sought after. Eventually Coca Cola and Pepsi threatened to dis franchise all the bottlers in the U.P. if they didn't convert to 20 oz bottles and change their mixes. Now they make a Real Sugar blend for Mountain Dew and Pepsi but they still don't taste the same. Maybe it was that Upper Peninsula / Lake Superior water.
Like your videos. They are well done. Have you done any videos on Bison? It is a dry meat, so it takes extra work to keep it juicy.
Wow, super cool note. Thanks for being here! We do not have a bison video yet. Make sure to cook it slightly under the desired temp that you like so it doesn't dry out.
This is amazing! trying this immediately
That looks amazing. Gonna have to try it soon.
Firstly great video, really enjoyed it. In response to your reflection request I would like to put forward Mojo Ribs. It’s marinated in an incredible mojo marinade but then smoked & finished off to be what I would term a wet rib. I love them. Cheers Al
Definitely going to try that sauce
Looking forward to try another Meat Church dish!!
Enjoy!!
Got my inspiration for this weekend!
AWESOME!
huh. Was just visiting some friends in Atlanta last week. They were telling me about making a Dr. Pepper chicken. And we went to Fox Bros. Then i stumble upon this video. What’re the odds? Guess I’ll have to try this soon!
I grew up right down the road from Dublin Texas. I miss a good bottle of Dublin Dr pepper.
