Ingredients1 whole chicken, 3 to 4 pounds
1 bottle (18 ounces) barbecue sauce

Whisk together the barbecue sauce and the RC Cola. Pour this mixture over the chicken in the crockpot. Add the onions and the lemons. Cover the crockpot and cook, on low, for 8 to 10 hours, until the chicken is tender and falling off the bones. Remove the cooked lemons before serving.
