I'm sure that would work. I used to take goose breasts and put them in the crock pot all afternoon with jellied cranberries on top. Was very good.
Coop - it may or may not be. Taking a chance here. I have used the recipe before for crock pot peach cobbler that works awesome. You put a paper towel under the lid to catch the condensation so it doesn't get soggy. This new crock pot has a hole for a temp probe so was thinking it would evaporate out, but the condensation is still there. Guess we will see.
I've done this a couple of times and it is always a success. However I use Asian five spice instead of brown sugar.

It was good. Thanks for the recipe!
The veggies and boneless, skinless chicken thighs were frozen. I mis remembered the timing and originally put it altogether on low by noon. Got home about 4 and coop was right, the dough wasn't cooking like I thought. So turned it on high. Dough didn't cook all the way towards the middle to brown and crispy, but was still good.
If I am going to do it again, I would keep the veggies frozen, but would cut the chicken in pieces. Also cook on high to cook the crescent roll crust, and put the paper towel under the lid.

Ahhh, not so fast. You can get a smoke ring with no smoke, smoke, covered in paper, etc. It's not the smoke, and it's not the rub that keeps it out. Read this little experiment. If the CO and NO can penetrate paper and hepa filters, then they can penetrate rub, which once on the meat, will become moist. The smoke ring is a bit of a myth. Hell, look at your hamburgers off of a charcoal grill next time. They will have a smoke ring, albeit thin, and they might have only been on there for a few minutes.
