You guys loved our long time family favorite Pepper Jack Chicken so much I started thinking about other recipes we have made for years and years and realized I haven’t shared the recipe we make every time we go fishing: Campfire Chicken! This has been a staple in one form or another in our family for 22 years!
How to Make Campfire Chicken in a Slow Cooker
While we have made this dish for years on the grill, it is even easier to make in the slow cooker. You just layer and season your chicken and add your veggies, topping with more seasoning and butter. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 4-6 until veggies are tender and chicken is cooked through.
Notes on Crock Pot Campfire Chicken
- If you would like more veggies, feel free to double the veggies in this recipe. Cooking time may be a little longer, but you do not need to add any liquid (the veggies, butter and chicken will produce their own juices).
- You can use other forms of chicken, but it may adjust cooking time.
- Cut your cabbage into smaller pieces and your zucchini into larger chunks so that they will cook more evenly. Cabbage usually takes longer to cook and zucchini typically cooks faster.
- We have made this recipe for years, substituting in different veggies to meet our tastes and needs. Feel free to use the veggies you love.
- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

i am going to try this in my cast iron dutch oven at camping
I’m new to slow cooking techniques so I was happy to learn a lot from watching the video just now. About sizes of different kinds of veges and layering them in a certain order to cook correctly. Thanks for the information, it will help me a lot. I like it when it’s a learning lesson also. Slow cooking is so different than any other cooking I have ever done before. Can’t wait to try this either way (slow cooker and grill). I’m not low-carb so will definitely add potatoes and carrots, etc.
