Want to do a whole chicken with BBQ style spices in a crockpot to make pulled chicken.
My grocery has the traditional whole chicken in a bag, frozen. They also have a "whole chicken" unfrozen on a meat tray in seran(sp) wrap, like it doesn't have any form. The meat is all piled up, like they just discected the parts first.
Does this matter if I was putting it in a crockpot with spices for 4-6 hours?
Also, recipes encouraged.

Not really, I would just get the cheaper one in this case if you plan to cook it right away.

Doesn't really matter since you're slow cooking it and you're going to pull it apart anyway.
I would say just regardless of what chicken you get, season it liberally on the outside, under the skin and inside the cavity with whatever seasoning you want to use, put some cut up onions and crushed cloves of garlic in the bottom of the crock pot, chicken on top and a bit of chicken stock or water. Not too much liquid to start though, a lot will cook out of the chicken after a few hours.

if you're doing pulled chicken I would probably just use a bunch of leg quarters. dat breast meat gonna be dry after 6hrs

Every time I've tried cooking chicken in a Crock Pot it turns out as dry as as Egyptian mummy fart.
