Easy Crock Pot Barbeque Chicken Recipe

Barbeque chicken is one of our favorite meals.

We enjoy bbq chicken all year long. I have an electric George Forman grill that I make some awesome boneless bbq chicken breasts on.

You wouldn't think you could get that smoky bbq flavor on an electric grill but you can.

One of these days I will share my secret ingredient for boneless chicken on the grill.

We also have a charcoal grill that we enjoy cooking on. Not sure if you noticed but chicken is my favorite meat to eat.

I have many ways I enjoy cooking it.

There are those days when I don't feel like firing up either of my grills but have a craving for bbq chicken.

Let's face it. It. Is. Hot. Outside!

The next option up is oven bbq chicken. The downfall of oven bbq chicken is that.... well you have to cook it in the oven.

The oven heats the house up!

My old clunker of an air conditioner is straining big time trying to keep the house cool as it is. The oven is not an option.

So out comes my trusty 6-quart crock pot.

    Why the paper towels?

      The paper towels prevent most of the condensation from the lid from dripping into the crock pot. In this case, it helps the chicken cook like it would in the oven instead of steaming as it would with a lot of liquid in the crock pot. This also helps keep other crock pot recipes from getting too watery.

    You can also shred the chicken when it is done and have sandwiches.
