These look great. I have actually never had chicken and dumplings before. Just might have to try it. Thanks for sharing at the All Star Block Party.

I HAVE to try this recipe!
I’m guessing put the chicken in the crock pot frozen? Can it cook longer than 6 hours while I’m at work?
I wouldn’t go much more than 6 hours
Could put it on a timer
