Steps:
- Spray inside of 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In slow cooker, beat milk, evaporated milk, 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce, the melted butter, salt, pepper and red pepper with whisk. Add pasta, 3 1/2 cups of the Cheddar cheese and the Velveeta™ cheese. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until pasta is cooked, but not mushy.
- Reserve 1/4 cup of the crumbled bacon.
- When the pasta has cooked, increase to High heat setting; stir in chicken and remaining bacon. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese on top. Cover; cook about 15 minutes or until melted. Turn off slow cooker and let stand, still covered, 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in 6-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add bread crumbs, and stir to coat. Cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown. Add reserved 1/4 cup bacon to bread crumbs. Sprinkle crumbs and bacon over pasta. Drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup barbecue sauce, and serve.
