Slow Cooker Rotisserie Chicken
Rotisserie Chicken is one of my favorite recipes to make in the crock pot! I make at least 3 or 4 of these a month! I pull the chicken off and use it for casseroles, salads, wraps or sandwiches for easy dinners or lunches and make stock with the bones! SO good, economical and EASY! The perfect meal starter! 
The verdict is in y’all! I tried the foil ball method of making a rotisserie style chicken in the slow cooker, and it was the best slow cooker chicken I have ever made! I don’t know what made me wait so long to try it! The foil balls keep the rotisserie chicken out of the juices so it doesn’t just stew away like the whole chickens I have cooked before. This means the finished product was actually a whole cooked chicken, where as usually its in a million pieces when I take the lid off. The skin on the chicken was not crispy, so I did pull the chicken out VERY carefully and browned it under the broiler for about 3 minutes to get that crispy rotisserie skin we know and love. The above picture was taken before I did all that though. That is how it looked when I pull the slow cooker lid off.
As far as the recipe I used, I just used my typical method of covering the chicken in a little bit of mayo and seasoning the way we always do. We made one of our favorite casseroles with some of it and the rest got frozen in 2 cup portions for easy dinners on busy nights! I pulled the foil balls out of the slow cooker and threw the bones back in the leftover juices and have some homemade broth simmering away in the slow cooker! I love cooking a whole chicken. It is very economical. Now that I have tried this easy and delicious method, I could see me doing it this way once a week from now on!
