Crockpot BBQ chicken on white plate.

We love using the slow cooker to make ultra tender and juicy chicken. This recipe features a doctored up BBQ sauce that really adds a sweet, tangy flavor to the chicken. Read the blog post above for a list of serving ideas.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup bottled sugar-free barbecue sauce, plus more for serving
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar sweetener

  • 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes more or less to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  1. Add the chicken breasts to a slow cooker.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce, brown sugar sweetener, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  4. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 4 hours or until chicken is easily shredded with a fork.

Notes

All slow cookers cook differently. 4 hours is what works for us, but keep cooking until your chicken easily shreds apart with a fork.

Chicken thighs will also work in this recipe.

We like to serve this chicken with a side of cauliflower rice and our keto coleslaw, but there are loads of ideas listed in the blog post.
