Easy, easy easy! One bottle of bar-b-que sauce...we love Stubbs (!!!) and Jack Daniels, to 3-4 lbs of chicken, partially or fully thawed into the crockpot. Low for 4-6 hours. We use boneless, skinless meat. Skinless because of less fat, boneless because one time, we found a 10lb ham with the bone already in it, cooked it in the slow roaster with Tony Cacciore's injection flavoring. It was mouth-watering oh-it-s so good! But, after roasting, we trimmed the rest of the fat off, then took out the bone, and we measured it out with our kitchen scale, and got a whopping 3 1/2 lbs of meat! By the way, if he has freezer space, he can get a kitchen scale and freeze off 1 1 lb batches of meat. Get the Hamburger Helper/Chicken Helper or Zatarains Rice mixes, on sale preferably, and, this makes for a easy meal!
