This recipe is so simple and so tasty . All you need is honey bbq sauce, chicken breast, garlic cloves and a slow cooker! I got the bbq sauce from Safeway for $2.50! That is a great deal and normally the Signature Select brand is a hit.

We enjoyed the pulled chicken with a bowl of mashed potatoes and greens. Or you could add it to a potato bun for a delicious pulled chicken sandwich! Add it to a salad, there are unlimited way to enjoy this recipe

Why is it called pulled chicken?

“Shredded chicken and pulled chicken are terms often used synonymously. It describes meat cooked through until tender, then “pulled” or “shredded” along the meat’s grain. “-Jessica Gavin

I love a good Crockpot recipe. Just simply add your ingredients and let the slow cooker do the work. I especially love a chicken breast recipe in the slow cooker — check out this Slow Cooker Honey Mustard Chicken Recipe. One of my favorites!
