3 chicken breasts (FROZEN OR THAWED) 1 bottle bbq sauce (don't use kraft ...ALWAYS is terrible in cooking recipes) 1/2C Italian salad dressing 1/4C brown sugar 2T Worcestershire Place it all in the crockpot and cook on low for 4-5 hours, take out and shred and then cook for 1 hr (this is when all the liquid will be absorbed so don't worry if it's thin at first) Note: Chicken IS one of those recipes that you can overcook in the crockpot. With my crockpot, I cook without opening or stirring for 4hrs (5hrs if frozen), and 30-60 min more after it's shredded. After that, it'll start overcooking in mine, so WATCH your chicken. Liquid absorbed and sides are turning dark = done ...take out and just microwave extras. Mr. J likes it plain. I love mine with ranch on top!

This looks/sounds reallllyyyy good. I will definatly give it a try. Thank u so much for postin. |
That's funny that you mentioned overcooking the chicken. I was just going to ask about that--since I work away from home all day, I have to either turn on the crock pot before I leave and have it on for 9 hours, or try to run home at lunch to do it (which isn't all that close and a pain to do). It's so frustrating b/c so many of the good sounding recipes are for like 4-5 hours of cooking, or you're supposed to cook for a certain time, then reduce the heat after a while, which I can't do if I'm working! |
If you just cook the breasts in chicken broth, come home, drain/shred, then add the bbq sauce for an hour... I bet that would work too. Just a suggestion to try. |
Do you use boneless skinless chicken, or bone in with skin? |
always boneless, skinless |

You mean like cook the chicken briefly, like 20 minutes on the stove? Or cook them all day in the chicken broth in the crockpot and then drain, shred, etc... |
the cook all day on low in the crockpot. i bet it would work just the same. |
Jo- did you find your camera??? |
Yes, it was exactly where I left it. I put it in the stroller to take a pic of a new gift the boys got outside. It somehow fell into a pocket in the stroller. We both checked the stroller inside and out a GAZILLION times. then we went to baseball practice, it was just "there." You have no idea how many HOURS I spent looking for this stupid thing. I was hoping it would disappear so I could just get a new one. |
I use all the same stuff for meatballs in the crock pot too... I love the Lady Diana bbq sauces for crock pot stuff. |
Just had this tonight and it was very good |
