Lemon & Herb Crockpot Whole Chicken

This is a great starting point to play with seasoning a whole chicken. This is such an easy way to cook a whole chicken. Once I made this, I tried variations with cajun seasoning, mexican etc.

Ingredients:
-one thawed and skinned whole chicken
- head of garlic
- 2 lemons
- fresh rosemary (I'm lazy and cheap so I used dried!)
- salt and pepper

Directions:
- Rub chicken with salt and pepper
- Plop in crockpot
- Peel garlic and shove a bunch of whole cloves into the bird cavity and throw some more on top and around the chicken
- Slice lemon and put slices on top, around and inside the chicken
- Do the same with rosemary - if you are using dried, use a good amount - probably 2 -3 tablespoons
- Cook on low 8 - 10 hours
