Share:
Ingredients
- 4.5 pound whole chicken thawed (1 chicken)
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup Sweet Baby Rays BBQ Sauce divided
- 2 small zucchini halved and sliced
- 2 small yellow squash halved and sliced
- fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Place 5 foil balls into the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker. Remove anything from the inside of the chicken (like the neck, etc.) and discard. Place the chicken on top of the foil balls. Brush the butter onto the chicken, sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
- Brush 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce on the chicken.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 4.5 hours. Don't open the lid while the chicken is cooking.
- After the chicken has cooked for 4.5 hours, open the lid and add the sliced zucchini and squash and cook for 1.5 hours longer on HIGH. (I do this part on HIGH because heat escapes when I open the lid to put in the veggies).
- Brush the chicken with the other 1/2 cup BBQ sauce.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and cut it ino sections (breast and wing & thigh and leg). Server warm with veggies and sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.
