Ingredients

Scale
  • 46 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 bottle Sweet Baby Ray’s barbecue sauce
  • ¼ cup vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken:

    • Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the Crockpot.
  • Make the Sauce:

    • In a small bowl, combine the Sweet Baby Ray’s barbecue sauce, vinegar, red pepper flakes, brown sugar, and garlic powder. Stir until the ingredients are well mixed.
  • Pour Sauce Over Chicken:

    • Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well-coated.
  • Cook the Chicken:

    • Cover the Crockpot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and easily shreds with a fork.
  • Shred and Serve:

    • Once the chicken is cooked, shred it with two forks in the Crockpot, stirring it into the sauce. Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or on sandwich buns.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, you can add more red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
  • This chicken is also great for meal prep, and the leftovers store well in the fridge for a few days.
  • You can add extra vegetables (like onions or bell peppers) to the Crockpot for added flavor.
