My boy managed to eat most of it without spitting it out after sucking all the juice!

Need to look into other options, not worth doing the casserole when I am the only one that eats them.]]> Mon, 22 Sep 2008 19:10:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=496919&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#496919 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=496678&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#496678 Author: Maya

You can cook almost anything in a crockpot. Lamb, beef or pork roasts. I cook whole chickens all the time. I usually cook a bigger one which does us for lunches the next day or if not lunches stir fry the next night for dinner. I sometimes spray the chicken with a little bit of cooking oil and sprinkle dried herbs or anything similar over the top. You can really use your imagination with a crockpot. I certainly would be without mine.

PS Lamb shanks are beautiful done in the crockpot.]]> Wed, 17 Sep 2008 16:46:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=493297&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#493297 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=493149&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#493149 Author: jaz

I haven't tried lamb but have done beef and pork and both were good. The beef tastes more like pot roast than oven roasted. ]]> Wed, 17 Sep 2008 13:54:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=493149&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#493149 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=493031&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#493031 Author: Mum_mum

oooooooo a whole chicken! I thought you could do that but DH said it would be too dry.... obviously it makes a pretty damn moist chicken! Might try!
Can you cook roast lamb or beef in them too?]]> Wed, 17 Sep 2008 11:58:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=493031&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#493031 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=493001&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#493001 Author: MrsMojo

Mmmmmm, it was yummy! I didn't put the spuds in coz they wouldn't fit lol, the chook was too big, so I roasted them in the oven. I just put a splash of soy sauce over the chook, some whole garlic cloves and some halved onions and it was tasty!]]> Sun, 14 Sep 2008 20:01:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=490711&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#490711 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=490496&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#490496 Author: caliandjack

according to Alison Holst her recipe for a stuffed size 18 chook is High for 5-6 hours, so I guess longer on Auto and longer still on Low.
and spray the pot with non-stick spray so it doesn't stick]]> Sun, 14 Sep 2008 13:44:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=490496&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#490496 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=490473&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#490473 Author: jaz

Yep - just a chook. I tried putting water or stock in the first time I did it but it went a bit soggy.

I've done it and its beautiful and tender but doesn't brown up. I can't remember what size chicken but I put them in before I leave for work (about 8am) then we eat at 6pm. It's always so tender it falls apart when I try to lift it out. I put mine on low.

If you do vege's they need to go at the bottom and be cut up small. Roast veges aren't that nice in the crockpot actually. They sort of steam rather than bake. ]]> Sun, 14 Sep 2008 08:56:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=490380&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#490380 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20871&PID=490275&title=cooking-a-whole-chook-in-crockpot#490275 Author: Maya
