SLOW COOKER BARBECUE PULLED CHICKEN

Slow Cooker Barbecue Pulled Chicken image

I got this from EatingWell.com, and it is absolutely delicious! We don't eat pork, so it is nice to find a recipe for barbecue that we can enjoy. It is also quite easy to throw together in the crock pot. I took a little time to throw this together and toss some cole slaw together, and by the time the chicken was ready the slaw was marinated and delicious! NB: The original recipe calls for ground chipotle instead of cajoun seasoning. I'm sure it is yummy either way! Also, the sauce will seem thin until you get the chicken shredded and mixed back in. Enjoy!

Tips:

For the best flavor, use a whole chicken and cook it on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-6 hours.
If you're short on time, you can use pre-cooked chicken breasts or thighs. Just add them to the slow cooker with the sauce and cook on low for 2-3 hours or high for 1-2 hours.
Feel free to experiment with different flavors of BBQ sauce. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
Add in some vegetables, such as onions, peppers, or corn, for a healthier and more flavorful meal.
Serve the pulled chicken on buns or tortillas with your favorite toppings, such as coleslaw, pickles, and cheese.
