Ingredients

  • 1 4-5 pound Whole Chicken
  • 1 Tablespoon Paprika
  • 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Onion Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

Instructions

  • Prepare the whole chicken by removing the innards from the chest cavity. Use a paper towel to pat dry both inside and out.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to make a sweet rub. Mix well, then use your hands to rub the mixture all over the chicken. Tie legs together if desired.
  • To keep the chicken from resting on the bottom of the slow cooker, place a small wire rack or 4 balls of aluminum foil.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours until an internal thermometer reads 165 degrees in the thickest part of the breast.
  • Preheat the oven broiler about 30 minutes before the chicken is done cooking. Once the chicken has cooked through, place the whole chicken on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and broil for about 2 minutes, or until the chicken skin is golden and crispy. Be sure to keep a close eye so that it doesn't burn!
  • Remove chicken from the broiler and let rest for at least 15 minutes before carving or shredding. Enjoy!
