ZESTY SLOW COOKED BBQ CHICKEN
My Family LOVES chicken, and BBQ not to mention I LOVE my crock-pot. So I have devised several recipes that use my crock-pot, as well as some of the naturally grown, pastured/free range meats we grow out here on the homestead. Oh and I guess I will throw in some of our garden fresh herbs for good measure. Best Served hot on hamburger buns {with a Heinkein, or beer of your choosing), but can also be served in a bowl with a side of fresh made biscuits.

CROCK POT SPICY BONELESS BBQ CHICKEN - EASY
I was inspired by Recipe #40416 and create my own. I am a novice cook and this has to be the easiest recipe I have tried in my crock pot. I would have liked to try a better BBQ Sauce but Winn-Dixie had a limited selection so I used there own which turned out pretty good. This is a great recipe for people who work or have little time to fix a meal trust me :-)
