SLOW-COOKER BARBECUE CHICKEN THIGHS
Meet your new favorite party dish! Sweet and smoky with just the right amount of spicy kick, these barbecue chicken thighs are a crowd pleaser that'll make every host's life a little bit easier. Here's why this recipe is so good: First, thighs are the perfect cut of chicken for the slow cooker, because they contain more fat, which means they don't dry out as easily as breasts. Second, the sauce is homemade-and homemade does not equal hard in this case. If you can chop an onion, you can make this sauce, and it is so worth it! We've made sure that there's enough sauce to coat the chicken while it cooks, and some extra to add as a finishing touch, because let's be real-it's all about the sauce when barbecue's on the menu!
