Description

Discover the ultimate BBQ chicken in your crockpot. This tender, flavorful recipe is perfect for any meal—easy prep, big taste, and loved by all.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 1 cup BBQ Sauce
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp cumin

Instructions

  1. Step: Prepare your ingredients by chopping the onion and mincing the garlic. If you’re using frozen chicken, there’s no need to thaw.
  2. Step: In the crockpot, combine the chopped onion, minced garlic, BBQ sauce, and cumin. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated.
  3. Step: Add the chicken breasts into the crockpot, making sure they’re well submerged in the sauce mixture.
  4. Step: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and easy to shred.
  5. Step: Once cooked, remove the chicken and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot, mixing it with the sauce for extra flavor.
  6. Step: Serve warm in sandwiches, tacos, or over rice as desired!

Notes

For best results, ensure the chicken is fully submerged in the sauce before slow cooking. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
