- Remove giblets from the cavity of the chicken and discard or save for another use.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
- Rub the chicken with the olive oil and then coat all of the chicken with the dry seasonings, trying to get some up under the skin.
- Place orange slices and fresh rosemary into the cavity of the chicken and use butcher's twine to tie the drumsticks together.
- Place the chicken on top of the vegetables and foil ring in the slow cooker, with the breast side up.
- Place lid on cooker and cook on high for 4-5 hours or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches at least 165°F.
