Description

Crock Pot BBQ Chicken is a fork-tender pulled chicken that you don’t want to miss. The mix of sweet barbecue sauce with brightness from the apple cider vinegar is the perfect blend of flavors. This chicken is so delicious piled on a soft bun, served with your favorite picnic sides!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken breast
  • 1 (18 oz) bottle barbecue sauce
  • 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tsp garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar

Instructions

  1. Step: Place chicken breasts in the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker.
  2. Step: Add BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic, onion powder, black pepper, paprika, and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Whisk until well combined and pour over the chicken.
  3. Step: Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 4-6 hours.
  4. Step: Shred the chicken in the slow cooker with two forks. Then mix into the sauce.

Notes

Select chicken breasts of similar size to ensure they cook evenly. If you have varying sizes, consider cutting larger pieces in half. The chicken is done when it reaches 165°F and pulls apart easily with forks. Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for 3 months.
