Equipment

1 slow cooker

Ingredients

1 jar barbecue sauce
3-4 medium chicken breasts boneless, skinless, cut very thick ones in half so they come out tender

Instructions

Put 1/2 bottle of barbecue sauce on bottom of crockpot, put chicken on top of that.
Pour remaining jar of bbq sauce on top, and if you want to add a small can of pineapple chunks/tidbits (with 1/2 c. of juice) on top of that do so now. (if you like a bit more salty taste add 3 tbsp soy sauce on top too)
Turn crockpot on low and cook for approx. 4-6 hours or until breasts are cooked and soft enough to shred easily.
If breasts are frozen cook for 6-8 hours on low.
Open and shred chicken 30 min. before serving, put lid back on. serve over rice or in small tortillas with spicy jack cheese, lettuce, etc.
