Instructions
Pat the chicken dry and remove the neck and giblets inside the chicekn. This is a very important step that many people miss when using the crockpot to cook a whole chicken!
Season the ENTIRE CHICKEN with your favorite seasoning. Using 4-5 pieces of aluminum foil and make into balls. Place on the bottom fo the slow cooker so that the skin on the chicken isn't sitting in the chicken broth once it begins to release moisture.Next, place in Crockpot on HIGH for about 4 hours or LOW for about 7 ½-8 hours. The internal temperature on the thickest part of the thigh needs to be 165 degrees. It is so important to check the internal temperature of your chicken with a meat thermometer. Don't even think about skipping this part of the process!
If you want crispy skin on your crockpot whole chicken, leave the lid off of your crockpot for about 30 minutes to an hour. You can also pop under the broiler.
