Cola BBQ Chicken image

My dad has been making a basic version of this family favorite for years. I've recently made it my own by spicing it up a bit with hoisin sauce and red pepper flakes. Sometimes I let the chicken and sauce simmer in my slow cooker. -Brigette Schroeder, Yorkville, Illinois

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was really good. I would try this recipe again, but I would cook the chicken for less time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty, but not as tender as I would have liked.

The chicken was delicious, but the sauce was a bit too spicy for me. Next time, I will use less chili powder.

I tried this recipe and the chicken was dry and overcooked. I think I will try a different recipe next time.
