Steps:
- In a large bowl combine all of the sauce ingredients.
- Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. (Don't be alarmed at the bold flavor, it won't taste as strong once it's combined with the chicken)
- Heat the sauce on medium and let it barely simmer for about 5-10 minutes (optional)
- Mix sauce into shredded chicken a little at a time until your desired consistency is reached (I never use all the sauce since I just like my chicken to be lightly coated.
- Top the prepared potato buns with the BBQ chicken and then top with cole slaw (optional but recommended)
- Serve hot.

- When the chicken has cooked through, add 2 ladles of the cooking liquid to the bowl, combining with the sauces, spices, brown sugar and tomato paste.
