Step:

  1. Place chicken in the bottom of your slow cooker. Wisk together all other ingredients. Pour evenly over chicken.

  2. Cook on low 6 hrs. Shred chicken (you can do it right in the slow cooker). Stir shreds into the sauce.

  3. Continue on low 1-2 more hrs to really flavor the chicken. Serve on toasted buns. Enjoy!

  4. See notes below

  5. NOTE: You can totally use bottled bbq sauce instead of the sauce ingredients listed. I'd go with about 1 1/2 cups sauce + 1/4 cup water. I just always have everything on hand to make homemade sauce and prefer it over bottled.


Ingredients

  1. 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs worth)
  2. 1 1/2 cups ketchup
  3. 3/4 cup brown sugar
  4. 1/4 cup cold water
  5. 1 tsp onion powder
  6. 1 tsp hickory flavored liquid smoke
  7. 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (white vinegar will do)
  8. 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  9. 5-6 dashes worcestershire sauce
  10. Salt and pepper to taste (optional, I didn't use any)
