Shredded Chicken On A Soft Bun

A pot of shredded BBQ chicken stretches further than almost anything else you can cook. It feeds the family tonight and turns into lunch tomorrow, and nobody complains either time.

Cooks on Pepper reach for these on the mornings they know dinner has to cook itself — chicken in the slow cooker before work, buns and a bag of chips on the counter by six.

Every recipe here is built around pulled chicken and sauce: Crockpot BBQ Chicken for the easiest version, BBQ Chicken Sandwich with honey stirred into the sauce, BBQ Chicken Sandwiches on your favorite buns, and Crockpot Shredded BBQ Chicken Sandwiches with chopped red onion.

Quick Tips

  1. 1

    Shred while it's hot

    Pull the chicken apart with two forks within 10 minutes of cooking, then return it to the juices so it soaks the sauce back up.

  2. 2

    Go low and slow

    Boneless breasts need about 4 hours on low in the slow cooker; thighs can go 5 to 6 and stay juicy.

  3. 3

    Hold back the sauce

    Cook the chicken with seasoning and a splash of liquid, then stir in the BBQ sauce during the last 30 minutes so it doesn't scorch.

  4. 4

    Toast the buns

    Butter the cut sides and toast them in a skillet 1 to 2 minutes until golden so they don't go soggy under the chicken.
