I was craving BBQ beef sandwiches the other day, but what do you know? I didn’t have any chuck roasts in the freezer. Figures … So anyway, I decided to go with BBQ chicken sandwiches instead! That’s the next best thing, right? Right! … especially when that’s the only kind of meat in your freezer. 🙂

I have made shredded BBQ chicken in the crockpot using two other recipes (Island BBQ Chicken and Zesty Chicken BBQ) and this recipe at least ties for first place. (Honestly, it’s been so long since I made the zesty chicken bbq that I don’t remember enough about it to compare. I’ll have to make it again soon for a taste test … ) This makes a lot of food, and I’m very much looking forward to the leftovers!

BBQ Chicken Sandwiches
1.5 lb. chicken breasts
1/2 onion, diced
1 cup of any combination of ketchup and bbq sauce (mine was split about 50/50)
4 oz. taco sauce
1 tbs. brown sugar
1/2 tbs. dry mustard
1 tbs. vinegar
1 tbs. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. steak sauce

Directions:
Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot. Add all other ingredients, stirring to combine and covering the chicken as best as possible. Cook on low for 7-8 hours. At end of cook time, shred chicken and mix back into the sauce. Serve on your favorite sandwich buns, and enjoy!
