Chicken thighs are the ideal slow-cooker meat because they emerge tender and juicy, even after hours of cooking. The sauce is a guaranteed kid-pleaser: Rich, sweet and low on spice and tang. Make a couple of batches to keep in the freezer for busy weeks when you know you'll have limited time for meal prep.

SOUTHERN STYLE SLOW COOKER BBQ CHICKEN SANDWICHES RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Southern Style Slow Cooker BBQ Chicken Sandwiches Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by á-40619

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or tenders
seasoning salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder to taste
1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
1 16-oz. jar of your favorite BBQ sauce
1/4-1/2 cup cornstarch
6 hamburger buns
2 cups coleslaw

Steps:

  • Season your chicken breasts with seasoning salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Lay the chicken breasts on the bottom of the slow cooker; top with chopped onion. Pour the BBQ sauce on top of the chicken and onion. Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 7-8 hours. One hour before the chicken is done cooking, add the cornstarch to the slow cooker. (If you want a thicker sauce, add 1/2 cup of cornstarch.) Stir the cornstarch into the BBQ sauce; return the lid and cook for another hour. Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and place in a large bowl. Shred the chicken with two forks. (The chicken will be extremely tender, so it will almost fall apart itself.) Toast the hamburger buns. Place some of the BBQ chicken on a toasted bun and top with coleslaw. Enjoy! Serves 6.
