This is almost too easy to be called a recipe, but I had to share it anyway. I came up with it one night when I wanted a nice meal but wasn't feeling too motivated. I love crock pot cooking!

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1-2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 (18 ounce) jar of your favorite barbecue sauce (I love K.C. Masterpiece!)
1 medium sweet onion, sliced
4-6 hamburger buns

Directions

1
Remove all visible fat from the chicken and toss it in the crock pot.
2
Place the onion slices on top of the chicken.
3
Pour the barbecue sauce over top.
4
You may not need the entire jar, just enough to cover the chicken.
5
Cook it on LOW for 8 hours or until the chicken is nice and tender.
6
Shred the chicken with a fork and knife; scoop the mixture onto the bottom buns and top it with the top buns.
7
Or, if you're like my dad, you might prefer leaving the breasts whole and eating it that way.
8
Voila!
9
An easy weeknight meal that doesn't heat up your kitchen in the summertime!
10
I love this with potato chips and a carrot and raisin salad.

Simple and easy. I'm on the lookout for crock pot meal meals and this is a keeper. I followed the advice of other reviewers and sprinkled with garlic salt and pepper. I also shredded the cooked chicken and placed back in the pot to cook with the bbq sauce. Thanks Kree I will make again and the bbq onions are great! Next time I will serve this with those onion hamburger buns.

This makes wonderful, tasty, flavorful BBQ sandwiches! It is so easy, you won't believe it - perfect for a weekday meal, for entertaining (because you do not have to cook, while guests are there), and the recipe could easily be adjusted for a large crowd. The only things that I did differently was sprinkle the chicken breasts with garlic salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper; add a few dahses of hot sauce to the BBQ sauce; and throw in some diced green chiles for the last 1/2 hour of cooking time(I, too, shredded the meat during the last 1/2 of cooking time, so that the meat could soak up the sauce and flavors). Served it with BBQ beans and corn, which was perfect with it. Wonderful, simple recipe - thanks for sharing a great idea!

This is great for an easy meal and my family loved it. I used frozen chicken breasts and used the leftovers for nachos the next day. Thanks for the recipe!
