Hobo Crock Whole Smoked Chicken
- One 4- to 5-pound chicken
- 3 tablespoons Cheater Basic Dry Rub (page 45)
- 1 onion, quartered
- 1/4 cup bottled smoke
- LINE a large slow cooker (at least 5 quarts) with a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil large enough to completely wrap around the chicken.
- PLACE the chicken in the slow cooker and generously coat all sides as well as the cavity with the dry rub.
- Place the onion in the cavity.
- Pour the bottled smoke over the chicken.
- FOLD the foil around the chicken for a snug fit and cover.
- Cook on high for 3 to 4 hours or on low for 5 to 6 hours, until the chicken is pull-apart tender and reaches an internal temperature of at least 175F in the thick part of the dark leg/thigh meat.
- Carefully Lift the chicken out of the crock.
- Let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Discard the onion and carve.
