Yesterday I slow cooked a bunch of chicken legs and thighs (on sale for .98 a pound) and at the end of the day I pulled it all out and seperated it from the bones and skin (ick)and let it drain the fat onto a paper towel. I had seasoned the meat in the cooker with paprika, salt, pepper, thyme and rosemary.
Then I made some soy sauce rice (put about 1/4 cup soy sauce in the cooking water), we added stir fry veggies to the rice once it was done cooking, and tossed in the drained meat. Yum!

I'm sure I'm behind the rest of the slow-cooker world in this but I found a recipe for chicken stock that cooks in the slow cooker overnight. I made changes though, as I used a left over rotissary chicken carcass from the WM deli and 7 instead of 6 cups of water. The broth freezes beautifully in 1 cup increments. Yum Yum Yum! http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Chicken-Broth-in-a-Slow-Cooker/Detail.aspx I also make BBQ (chicken, beef, pork) in our slow cooker all the time. I'm sure, depending on how one defines BBQ in their area of the world, that this isn't technically BBQ but it cooks slow (like BBQ here in the south should) and its tender and full of flavor.

Alright, I have been reading this thread ALL summer about this Old Bay Chicken, and I really want to try it, but there's this:
What kind of whole chicken do I buy? Alright, stop laughing --seriously, I'm not too fond of bones, so I tend to avoid buying whole chickens because I waste.... Could I use bone in breast or anything else like that? I have a pork roast that I can use, but I'm a real stickler about trying recipes as written first, and y'all have just raved about it and I feel left out by my own phobias!
Not a fryer? A Roaster?
Anyone???

Kygurlsrbest, That's my recipe and I just use a whole fryer. The nice thing about this is that if you cook it the whole 8 or more hours it lierally falls of the bone. The dark meat could be used in a chicken salad. I haven't tried it with just the bone in breast. I don't think it would work with a boneless chicken. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

Thanks, Mountaingirl. I'll get the whole chicken--I was a vegetarian for 10 years and it still just gets me--probably because I was vegetarian for my "young adult single" years, when I would have been extending my tastebuds and cooking techniques. I guess I'm entering a new era of learning.
