Best Slow Cooker Recipe a monkey can even make
So last night I decided to make this recipe and cook it through the night to have it for dinner tonight. I started it at 9:30 pm and it should have been done by 6:30 am. This is what happens when I go to sleep
I asked DH to check on it and maybe turn the chicken because it didn't look like a lot of liquid in the pot. I woke up at 3 am and decided to check on the crockpot..much to my surprise it was completely off, not even on warm. I left it and went back to bed. I woke up at 6 am and went to see what was up with the chicken. I cut into it and it was cooked (the recipe said it should cook for 9 hours, but it probably only did for about 3). I turned it back on and set it for another 4 hours to soften it to be able to shred it. Called hubby from work to tell him that tonights dinner was probably ruined and he told me, he ate some of the chicken before bed and that is was so good that he turned it off before he went to bed because he didn't want it to dry out (he had no idea that it needed to cook long enough to shred). Needles to say after all the drama..it turned out excellent and I want to share it with you all.
