Equipment

Ingredients

1 whole chicken approximately 4-5 pounds
2 Tablespoons butter
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

Instructions

Butter the inside of a crockpot. Tress the chicken.
Combine the brown sugar, chili powder and kosher salt in a small bowl.
Rinse the chicken inside and out with cold water, and pat it dry with paper towels.
Rub the seasoning mix all over the chicken and place it in the buttered slow cooker, breast side up.
Cover and cook on high for 3 - 3.5 hours, or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken thigh reads at least 165 degrees F.
Transfer chicken to a platter and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Notes

If you want to achieve a crispier skin, transfer the crock portion of your slow cooker to your oven and set the oven to a low broil. Baste the chicken a couple of times while the skin crispens to your liking.
