Scale
Ingredients:
- 4 skinless boneless chicken breasts
- 18 oz Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- ¼ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. smoked paprika
Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium-sized bowl, combine Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, crushed red pepper flakes, brown sugar, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
- Step 2: Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker in a single layer, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- Step 3: Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, making sure each piece is well coated. Use a spoon or spatula to spread the sauce evenly if needed.
- Step 4: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The chicken is done when it’s tender and can be easily sliced or shredded with a fork.
- Step 5: Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and place them on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred or slice the chicken.
- Step 6: If you shredded the chicken, place it back into the slow cooker and stir it into the sauce. Allow it to simmer in the sauce for an additional 10 minutes on low heat to absorb more flavor.
- Step 7: If you sliced the chicken, drizzle the sauce over the chicken and serve.
- Step 8: Serve the chicken warm with your favorite sides.
