cooking spray
3 cups canned tomato sauce
1 ½ cups ketchup
6 tablespoons brown sugar
6 tablespoons cider vinegar
¼ cup Sriracha sauce, or to taste

1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 (4 pound) whole chicken

Steps:

  • Spray a large slow cooker with cooking spray. Add tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, cider vinegar, Sriracha, garlic powder, and pepper flakes; stir until well combined.

SLOW COOKER BBQ PULLED CHICKEN

This is a delicious, smoky, slow cooker dish that is easy to make, and it doesn't require a BBQ grill or smoker. My husband and I love this dish and enjoy it on freshly baked or toasted onion rolls but really any bun is fine. I serve it with fries and sometimes coleslaw. Enjoy.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 6h5m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 frozen chicken breasts
12 ounces barbecue sauce
1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Place chicken in slow cooker.
  • In a separate bowl, mix bbq sauce, italian dressing, brown sugar, and worchestersire sauce. Pour over chicken.
  • Cover and cook 3-4 hrs on high or 6-8hrs on low.
  • Open crockpot and pull chicken breasts apart using 2 forks. Chicken should shred easily.
  • Serve!

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of chicken: For tender and flavorful pulled chicken, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. If using chicken breasts, pound them to an even thickness before cooking to ensure they cook evenly.
  • Use a flavorful BBQ sauce: The type of BBQ sauce you use will greatly impact the flavor of your pulled chicken. Choose a sauce that you enjoy the taste of and that complements the other ingredients in the recipe.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook the chicken on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Shred the chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the crock pot and shred it using two forks. Alternatively, you can use a hand mixer on low speed to shred the chicken.

Crock pot pulled BBQ chicken is an easy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. With just a few simple ingredients and a few hours of cooking time, you can have a tender, flavorful, and versatile dish that can be used in a variety of recipes.
