Crock Pot Whole Chicken

Crock Pot Whole Chicken


 


Total Time: 23 hrs

Prep Time:  15 hrs

Cook Time: 8 hrs

Servings:  4

4 teaspoons salt (per recipe reviews, 2 tsp is better)
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 large roasting chicken (with pop-up timer if possible)
1 cup chopped onion (optional)

Directions:

1 In a small bowl, combine the spices.

2 Remove any giblets from chicken and clean chicken.

3 Rub spice mixture onto the chicken.

4 Place in resealable plastic bag and refrigerate overnight. (I usually skip this step because I'm always in a hurry).

5 When ready to cook, put chopped onion in bottom of crock pot.

6 Add chicken. No liquid is needed, the chicken will make it's own juices.

7 Cook on low 4-8 hours.

8 Note: I highly recommend a pop-up timer in the chicken because some crock pots cook faster/slower than others (my crock pot cooks this recipe in 4-5 hours).
