In my slow cooker today...

Roast Chicken - I cleaned the chicken in warm water first, put half a lemon & some garlic inside. Put salt & pepper on outside. Put in slow cooker on top of 3 balls of rolled up tin foil (to keep off the bottom) and a glass of white wine. Turned out really nice & loads of chicken from it. HTH. Shogs

was just wondering as before I have wanted to do a roasted gammon joint but though it had to have a liquid in it so have done it in water.

I've done gammon 2 ways, on it's own, and with a splash of apple juice/cider. Both yummy.

Roast chicken in slow cooker - what do you do with/to it before putting it in - they tell you brown things etc.

Nothing I'm lazy, just whack mine in and cook it on low for about 8 hours. Don't use foil, don't wash it. Sometimes put in some garlic or lemon or tarragon but that's about it. Tis yummy.

Ham shank/hock is going in mine for overnight .

Soup and broth mix is already soaking and have peeled/chopped carrots, swede, leek, parsnip, onion, celery and pots ready to turn half of the stock and most of the meat into Shank Stew for tomorrow night's tea . The veggies came from a cheap rootveg pack plus SP pots.

The remaining stock and meat will become pea and ham soup on Saturday using a pack of yellow split peas and lentils :drool:.
