I think it has been mentioned on this forum before but I wanted to add it in here as well. We were out of the RV all day yesterday so before leaving I chopped 1/2 an onion and 2 cloves of garlic and put them in the bottom of our crock pot. I used salt, pepper, and a hint of cayenne on and in the cavity of a whole chicken. We returned to a perfectly cooked roasted chicken. I used no liquid. We ate the thigh/leg sections with an ear of corn and half a package of broccoli that I microwaved, and now I have the rest of the cooked chicken for use in recipes or sandwiches. It kept us out of the restaurant or (heaven forbid) the fast food line! And only took less than 15 minutes to have dinner on the table once we returned. I am already thinking chicken enchiladas with some of the left-overs.
