How to cook a whole chicken in a crock pot
Author: Emily - www.healthbyemily.com
- One whole organic and/or pastured chicken
- 1-2 tablespoons butter (best from grass-fed cows)
- Salt and pepper
- Fresh sage leaves (or dry rubbed sage) and/or other seasonings of your choice
- Chopped veggies (I used onion, carrot, and potato. You could also do sweet potato, beets, or anything else that tickles your fancy)
- Remove packet of "bits" from inside the main cavity of the chicken
- Rub softened butter, salt, pepper, and seasonings between the skin and the meat and on the skin
- Put in slow cooker, add chopped veggies over the top
- Add more salt and pepper for the veggies
- Set slow cooker on high for 3-4 hours, or on low for 6-7 hours.
- Be sure to save the extra meat for more simple meals, and save the bones to make some easy homemade soup stock!
