Recipe Renovation: BBQ Chicken Sandwiches

There are lots of fun new things happening on the blog, and this post is one of them. This is the first in my recipe renovations, taking one of my old recipes, and showing you something else to do with it. This one is a very easy application using my Sweet and Tangy BBQ Sauce, let's go!

Ingredients:
Chicken breasts
BBQ Sauce (mine, or some other kind, if you wish)
Hamburger buns

Yes, I realize that none of these ingredients have specific values, and I will tell you why. This recipe is meant to be easily adjusted to the amount of food you need. It's simple really. Just your desired amount of chicken breasts (mine were actually chicken tenders, same concept) into a crock pot. Pour in BBQ sauce until it reaches the top of the chicken.

Your chicken to BBQ sauce ratio should be similar to this.

Put the lid on your crock pot and cook the chicken, on high, for 3-4 hours. At this point, it should be nice and tender. Take a spoon and proceed to beat up the chicken. It should be tender enough that it falls apart pretty easily when you start attacking it.

Keep the lid off the pot, and let the mixture cook 15 minutes longer. This step helps to cook out some more of the liquid, so that you don't end up with a soggy mess for a sandwich. Once the chicken has reached a desirable consistency, place it on a hamburger bun. "Paint" some BBQ sauce (some not used on the chicken) on the opposite side of the bun. Put them together, and enjoy.

Ready to eat.

If the pictures are bad, I'm pretty sure Daniel took them. Normally, I make my own buns, but the child was still being a screamer. (She is feeling better now though, I can tell because she has been wandering around destroying stuff.) It can be nice to have a simple, pretty much hands off, dinner sometimes, and this certainly fit the bill.
