Tips for Making the Best Pulled BBQ Chicken in a Slow Cooker:

- Choose high-quality chicken breasts or thighs for a tender and juicy result. - For a smoky flavor, use a combination of liquid smoke and smoked paprika in the sauce. - If you don't have BBQ sauce, you can make your own by simmering ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, and spices together. - For a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch or flour slurry towards the end of the cooking time. - To prevent the chicken from drying out, add a cup of water or broth to the slow cooker. - Cook the chicken on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. - Shred the chicken with two forks or use a hand mixer on low speed. - Serve the pulled BBQ chicken on slider buns, in tacos, or over rice or mashed potatoes.
