Does anyone ever put chicken in a CP frozen (or nearly so)? Most recipes call for cooking on low 6-8 hours, but DH and I will be away from the house for 10 - sometimes 11 hours. My recent attempt with Cornish game hens had them falling apart as I tried to remove them. They were yummy, but I'd like a better "presentation" and perhaps would have done so if I cooked them only 8 hours, instead of 10-11. I wondered if I could put them in half frozen, or if I was just inviting a good case of botulism!!
I often cook completely frozen chicken breasts in the crock pot. Just open the package the throw them in, add whatever seasonings, etc. and they cook on low for 8-10 hours. They are quite done! Never had any problems. If you were doing an entire chicken, it might take a bit more time. Cornish hens are small, tho', so I think they'd work well. I may have to try that! What else did you put in with them, Regina?
