When I do a whole chicken in the crock pot I wad three pieces of aluminum foil into 3" or 4" balls and place them in the bottom of the pot first. Then add your onion, garlic or whatever you like. Set the chicken on top of it all. This allows drainage and keeps the chicken moist, but not mushy. I can't remember where I read about that, but I tried it and I've been doing it ever since. I often make Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup with our leftovers.
I also wanted to comment that while the Simply Roast Pork was excellent, the Chipotle Pork and Avocado Wraps were TO DIE FOR. Hubby and I loved them so much! We have a camping trip planned with my sister and brother-in-law next month and I'm going to roast the pork loin at home and bring it along. When we return from a long day of hiking and geocaching I'll toss the Pork Wraps together. I know my Sis and BIL are going to want the recipe. YUM YUM!
Thanks again for all these, I've had such fun with this thread!
