3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts about 6 large
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
8 ounces of beer (I used a classic amber)
32 ounces of barbecue sauce
Instructions
Season chicken with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Add to crockpot, then add beer and 24 ounces of barbecue sauce. Cook on low for 8 hours, tossing once or twice if desired.
After 8 hours, shred and add remaining barbecue sauce. Toss chicken to coat and let sit for 10-15 minutes before serving to absorb everything. Serve as desired.
It’s a great meal for a crowd. If you don’t want to use beer, you can try a ginger ale, chicken stock, or even water.
I’ve found that thinner barbecue sauce works better such as Bone Suckin’ Sauce than thicker sauce like Sweet Baby Ray’s. If you choose to use a thicker sauce, you may want to add a little more beer or liquid in order for the sauce not to burn and thicken on the edges of the pot.
Serving
Suggestions
This makes a ton of chicken and I usually freeze immediately freeze a container for later.
