Recipes for 6-Quart Setting Whole Chicken and Vegetables Ingredients: 1 medium onion, sliced 1 (5 1/2- to 6-pound [2.5 to 2.7 kg]) whole chicken 2 teaspoons (10 ml) seasoned salt 1 teaspoon (5 ml) cracked black pepper 4 medium carrots, sliced 1 1/2-inch (3.8 cm) thick 4 small red potatoes, cut in eighths 3 celery ribs, sliced 1 1/2-inch (3.8 cm) thick Directions: 1. Place half of sliced onion on bottom of slow cooker crock. 2. Rinse chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle all sides with seasoned salt and pepper. Place chicken on top of sliced onions in crock. 3. Arrange remaining onion, carrots, potatoes and celery around chicken. 4. Cover slow cooker. Cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6 to 8 hours. Chicken is done when meat temperature registers 165°F (74 °C) in the breast or 175°F-180°F (79°C-82°C) in the thickest part of the thigh. Serves: 4-6 Beef Pot Roast Ingredients: 3- to 4-pound (1.4 to 1.8 kg) chuck pot roast 1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt 1/4 teaspoon (1.2 ml) pepper 3 to 4 medium potatoes, quartered 3 to 4 carrots, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) pieces 2 medium onions, quartered 1/2 cup (118 ml) beef broth Directions: 1.
