I can use a while chicken (3-4 lb) in the crock pot for one meal, take the meat off the frame and mix it with BBQ sauce for another meal, then simmer the frame with various spices and veggies (from the first meal), and freeze the stock. This usually will feed five people at each meal. Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01605655205350411078noreply@blogger.com
