Fall-Off-the-Bone Slow Cooker Chicken

Instructions

• 1. Combine first six ingredients in a small bowl to make the rub. Set aside.
• 2. Prep your veggies and toss them into the slow cooker.
• 3. Rinse chicken and pat it dry with paper towels.
• 4. Rub garlic cloves all over outside of chicken. Put garlic and lemon quarters inside the chicken.
• 5. Put the rub all over the outside of the chicken.
• 6. Nestle your chicken on top of the veggies.
• 7. Cover slow cooker and cook on low for 4-8 hours, or cook on high for half that time. The time will depend on the size of your chicken and your slow cooker. When I cooked a 5 pound chicken, it took about 6 ½ hours on low. Cook until the internal temperature of the leg is at 160 degrees.
• 8. Carefully remove your chicken and place it in a broiler proof baking dish. Place baking dish under the broiler about 5 minutes. Keep a close eye on it, and rotate it, if necessary, so your chicken evenly browns. After removing chicken from broiler, allow it to rest for 5 minutes.
