This recipe I coupled with LAFLINT’s BBQ sauce recipe.Turned out awesome! I did modify both recipes however. To the chicken I added green and red pepper along with some carrots. To the BBQ sauce I added brown sugar instead of white, honey, garlic, cinnamon and Worchestire sauce. Blended it with my blender and poured it right on. I added cornstarch during the last 30mins to thicken up the sauce. Wrapped it up in a flour tortillas……THE BOMB!!!!

Easy Friday meal. Served with oven baked fries and fruit.A hit with granddaughter.

SO EASY. Made this for a church pot luck supper (tripled the recipe). Came home with an almost empty dish. Delicious and moist.

I do have a question…do you thaw the chicken before you cook it or just throw the frozen chicken in? It’s not very clear on that one so I thaw my chicken in the microwave and than make it.

This was super easy to make and everyone at the potluck loved it!
Isaac Turner
Excellent and Easy! Did it in a 4 qt programmable crock pot. Used boneless skinless chicken breasts… some BBQ sauce and about a 1/4 cup pineapple juice. Made open faced sandwiches using toasted thick Texas toast. Ooo yummeeee.

This was a perfect topping for my Indian fry bread. Added cilantro, tomato, and onion topped with sour cream!

Very easy to make and very delicious!!
Alexis Simpson
Easy to make, but impressive tasting! I used Sweet Baby Ray’s Original barbeque sauce and it was perfect! I served them in sliders, using the potato rolls recipe from this site. They are delicious and have easily become a family favorite! I will definitely continue to make this!

I might add some heat to it next time. My 4 year old ate two helpings and then asked for it again the next day. That’s impressive.

Pretty decent , of course it’s only as good as your BBQ sauce , I used BBQ bourbon and chased it down with cold coors light
Richard Anderson
I used the white onion I had. Curious to try with other BBQ sauces. Easy and good. I would double next time.

10.13.16 ~ Quick, easy and delicious – exactly what I was looking for. Remember, this recipes taste/flavor depends a lot on the bbq sauce that you choose, choose wisely. The first night we had it, it was served on slider buns. Reheated the leftovers and topped a baked potato for a quick dinner. Great recipe that I will use again.
Ashley Reynolds
I actually made this in the oven instead of the crock pot. I cooked 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts in the oven for about 2 1/2 hours on 375 degrees with the onion and one cup of chicken broth. then I drained the remaining broth, shredded the chicken, added Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce and put back in the oven for 45 minutes. AWESOME!!!! I will be making this again!!
Daniel Hudson

James Morgan

Made this for NYE party. Added a few drops of liquid smoke and a dash of cumin and garlic powder as a couple reviews mentioned. Also used Sweet Baby Ray’s sauce as noted in the reviews. Turned out very tasty and everyone enjoyed. Easy to make – doubled recipe for 10 people and we still have leftovers. Will for sure make this again.
