Ingredients
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup barbecue sauce
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, combine barbecue sauce, chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the chicken is tender and easily shredded.
Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and place it on a large plate or cutting board.
Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir it into the sauce to coat evenly.
Let the chicken sit in the sauce for 10 minutes on warm to absorb the flavors before serving.
