Tips & Tricks (5)
- BBQ Sauce Selection 🥫Choose a high-quality BBQ sauce with balanced sweetness and tang to elevate the chicken's flavor profile and prevent overly sweet or acidic results.
- Moisture Magic 💧Add 1/4 cup of chicken broth or water to the slow cooker to prevent drying out and ensure ultra-tender, juicy pulled chicken.
- Shredding Technique 🍴Use two forks to pull the chicken apart while it's still warm, which makes shredding easier and ensures consistent, tender texture throughout.
- Sauce Absorption Hack 🔥Let the shredded chicken sit in the BBQ sauce for 10-15 minutes after cooking to allow maximum flavor absorption and deeper taste development.
- Chicken Cut Wisdom 🐔Bone-in chicken breasts provide more flavor and moisture compared to boneless, though both work well in this slow cooker method.
