Steps:
- Place chicken in a large pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until chicken comes off the bone easily, about 3 hours. Make sauce while the chicken cooks.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together the ketchup, mustard, brown sugar, garlic, honey, steak sauce, lemon juice, and liquid smoke. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil, and simmer for about 10 minutes. Set aside to allow flavors to mingle.
- When the chicken is done, remove all meat from the bones, and chop or shred into small pieces. Place in a pan with the sauce, and cook for about 15 minutes to let the flavor of the sauce soak into the chicken. Spoon barbequed chicken onto buns, and top with coleslaw if you like.

SUPER SIMPLE BARBECUE CHICKEN SANDWICHES
This comes from an old issue of Real Simple magazine. Shredding rotisserie chickens can be messy, but I think it is well worth the effort! The rotisserie chicken really adds a lot of flavor to this sandwich. But the real flavor will depend on what BBQ sauce you choose. Get creative!

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. Chicken breasts are leaner, while thighs are more flavorful.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
- Cook the chicken properly: Cook the chicken over medium heat until it is cooked through but not dry. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Shred the chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, shred it with two forks or use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
- Make the barbecue sauce: While the chicken is cooking, make the barbecue sauce. There are many different recipes for barbecue sauce, so choose one that you like.
- Assemble the sandwiches: To assemble the sandwiches, place a scoop of shredded chicken on a bun. Top with barbecue sauce, coleslaw, and pickles. Serve immediately.
