Words from the Chair
Our nation is celebrating its 230th birthday
this July 4th, and the UM Staff Advisory Council is preparing for its 18th year.
As the Uncle Sam poster says, "I Want You!" Elections for the 2006-2009 are
coming up in August, and this is your opportunity to be more than just a face
in the crowd. Be a voice for yourself and fellow UM Employees, volunteer to
serve on the Council. You can make a difference!
While thinking about what I wanted to say for this issue, and what the 4th of
July is all about, I ran across this interesting link on what is not in the
Constitution: http://www.usconstitution.net/constnot.html.
As you celebrate the 4th, take a moment to remember our military personnel serving
at home and abroad, and pray for their safety.
Have a happy and safe Independence Day!

Beer Can Chicken Recipe
Here is a technique
that delivers great-tasting chicken
and makes a lively conversation starter
as well.
Use the suggested special rub
unless you have a favorite… you can substitute using
2 to 3 tablespoons of
your rub.
Beer Can Chicken rub:
1-teaspoon dry mustard
1-teaspoon granulated onion
1-teaspoon paprika
1-teaspoon kosher salt
1/2
teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground
cumin
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 whole chicken, 4 to 5 pounds
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 can (16 ounces) beer
To make the rub: In a small
bowl combine the rub ingredients. Remove and discard the neck, giblets, and
any excess fat from the chicken. Rinse the chicken, inside and out, under
cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Lightly spray or brush all over
with the vegetable oil and season, inside and out, with the rub.
Open the
beer can and pour off half of the beer. Set the half-full can on a flat surface
and slide the chicken over the top so the can fits inside the cavity. Transfer
the bird to the grill, keeping the can upright. Carefully balance the bird
on its two legs and the can.
Grill over Indirect Medium heat until the juices run clear and the internal
temperature reaches 170°F in the breast and 180°F in the thickest part of
the thigh, 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours. Wearing barbecue mitts, carefully remove
the chicken and the can from the grill, being careful not to spill the beer
– it will be hot. Let the chicken rest for about 10 minutes before lifting
it from the can. Discard the beer. Cut the chicken into serving pieces.
Serve warm.
