You can purchase whole chickens pretty cheap from the grocery store. I see them on sale frequently for around $.79 lb. I actually purchased a batch of air chilled whole chickens from a local farmer Foxhollow Poultry.
Place the whole chicken in a crock pot and add about a cup of water. Add as much salt and pepper as you like. I also added some fresh sage and oregano from my herb garden.
Place the lid on and allow to cook for 6-8 hours. Your house will start to smell amazing.
Once the chicken is cooked it will just fall off the bone. Yum!
I served the chicken with mashed potatoes and dinner rolls. An easy, healthy, and cheap meal with very little work.This post is linked to the Frugal Tuesday Tip.
I do this too! I drizzle a little olive oil on my chicken and then add garlic salt. :-) Everyone LOVES it. Sometimes I use the drippings to make gravy for rice or potatoes.
ReplyDeleteThis is a favorite here too! I like to stick 1/4 of an onion and a clove of garlic in the cavity too.
