Slow Cooker Alabama Pulled BBQ Chicken

We made this for Super Bowl LI and served it on a hamburger bun with coleslaw. I added a diced hot pepper (poblano) with the garlic to the chicken cavity. I also used yogurt rather than mayo (just because the yogurt was close to expiry). The sauce was prepared the night before. I usually substitute beer or wine for water when cooking to enhance and/or add flavour. This recipe doesn't need it!

I made with chicken breasts.. I dont care for dark meat. I cooked this for 3-4 hours in high.. shredded meat and put back in for an hour. I didnt get much flavor at first, but when I added the sauce.. it was great. Loved the tang of the vinegar

My family definitely enjoyed this, though I cooked the chicken a little differently. I didn't have a whole chicken but I did have 3 bone-in chicken breasts totaling just under 5 lbs. I put the onions in the bottom, added the chicken, topped with the spices, and covered with water on high until the chicken was cooked through and falling off the bone before shredding and tossing with the sauce.

I made this with 2.5 pounds of boneless skinless chicken breast. Cooked it for 3 hours on high, shredded it and then did a couple more hours on low. Made it as written other than that. It is delicious!! This is my First recipe review if that tells you anything

I thought this was very good. I also used chicken pieces, legs, boneless thighs and breast.I cooked mine on high the one hour and on low about three. Shredded the meat and put it back in slow cooker for forty-five minutes. I did not add the Sauce because I was not sure my husband would eat it so I made regular sauce also. He ended up eating the Alabama barbecue sauce and liked it. I had leftovers ,and for lunch I heated chicken with sauce, poured over Warmed Tostito Cantina chips, added black olives and Montery jack cheese. Heated until cheese melted. Great nachos!!

Oh my goodness this recipe is fabulous!!!!!!!! I used 4 boneless skinless chicken breast for my husband and myself, and it turned out great!! Just amazed at how great the sauce tastes on the chicken recipe. I also used Tricolor Rotini "Ronzoni Garden Delight" to serve the chicken dish on with a side Deli vegetable salad, and garlic bread. I got the idea to use Rotini, and the vegetable salad from one of the other reviewers, thanks!! As she said, I too had a lot of leftovers probably for 2 more dinners, reheat or to make into another whole other dinner idea. Very easy and cost effective and really yummy!!! What more could you ask for for a great recipe!

Very good and something really different. I made as directed and we enjoyed it over vegetable spaghetti. I saved part of the chicken breast to use in a salad for the following nights dinner. I thinned down the delicious BBQ sauce and used it as a dressing for the salad. I made the BBQ up in the morning, so that it had all day to meld. This made a lot of food for 2 people, and I have enough froze for 2 more meals. A delicious recipe, that I will be making again. I served this with sliced tomatoes and cucumbers.

I used a mix of boneless skinless breasts and thighs....and I wrapped each chicken around a clove of garlic. I refrigerated the chicken overnight; heated and shred it the next day. I added the sauce - I went a little more heavy handed on the cayenne in that recipe - and simmered it all over low heat for another hour or so......NUM NUM! We gobbled it up as is....but next time we're doing pulled bbq chicken open face swiss melts.... :o ......and then really anywhere I'd use a shredded pork!

Had chicken legs on hand so I used them to make this dish. I didn't use a crock pot, instead put them in a pan and cooked until they fell apart. Tasty! I'll make these again!

I followed the recipe exact but I used 3 pounds of chicken breast (the grocery didn't have whole chickens) and I didn't have liquid smoke. This was amazing! I invited my parents over for dinner and I was a little bummed because I would have liked leftovers. Just kidding, but I can't wait to make it again!

This was easy and delicious. The White BBQ sauce was tasty too.I also made pickled red onions for the sandwiches.

Excellent. Made as the recipe was written. Chicken was very moist and tender. I will definitely make this again.

This is a wonderful recipe. Made it for the Superbowl party and everyone really enjoyed it ans spoke well of the flavor! I will be making this recipe again. The Sauce was new to all of us and very well received too!

This came out pretty good for such a simple recipe. Not your typical BBQ. What really stands out is the sauce. Drizzling some sauce on the chicken afterwards is what gives it most of its flavor. The pulled chicken by itself does taste good it just doesn't have enough flavor on its own to really stand out. I will make again but I might add a bit more spice to kick the flavor up a notch. BTW, I made this with some regular old chicken breasts and it still came out good.

We used three boneless chicken breasts. Cooked on high for 3 hours, the went to low for 4 hours. The chicken and sauce were delicious.

I used a whole chicken and found this to be a lot of work. While eating, I had to watch for bones. Next time, I think I will use chicken breasts instead. And, there was no much taste.

Chicken was very moist. I used four thighs. We didn't care for the sauce, will something on it next time. Also I used smokey paprika.

I guess alabama bbq is just not for us. I followed the recipe exactly except used a whole cut-up chicken, but the flavors just didn't do it for us. The addition of the sauce helped but just didn't pack enough flavor for us.

I made the chicken--cooked it 9 hours on low & it was great. I served it with Sweet Baby Ray's barbecue sauce instead of the mayo based sauce in the recipe. Everyone loved it.

I

This is insanely good. Changes I did: 1. Used about 1.5 pounds of boneless/skinless breast and about 1.5 pounds of boneless/skinless thighs. 2. Doubled the dry mix and liquid smoke. 3. Doubled the white sauce. 4. Slow cooked for 7 hours rather then 8 hours Super recipe!!

great recipe. family likes it better than pulled pork. I doubled the ingredients for the sauce. easy recipe.

Loved this receipt. I made it with three chicken breasts, added some mushrooms, other than that I changed nothing. I served it on spaghetti squash.

I made this recipe and oh my goodness, it was so delicious! Shedded it and out it on top of a salad! Definitely a new favorite I will make often!! :)

I really love this recipe. It's quick easy to make. My wife, who typically does not like BBQ has begged me to make it more often ( although, light on the sauce). .

Instead of a whole chicken, I used two large bone on chicken breasts and four boneless chicken breasts. I didn’t know exactly how my two young daughters and my wife would like this dish. I had a hunch they may like but I wags unprepared for how much they all loved it. It seemed as though they hadn’t eaten in a week. I served the chicken on a variety of sandwich options. Popular choices were flour tortilla boats and either poppy or sesame topped hard roll sandwich buns. Everyone had at least two and my elder daughter had 3. And she’s pretty finicky. The sauce was a raging success and I added extra cayenne. I have now used leftover chicken, (a lot less than I expected) , and remaining sauce and made a delicious chicken salad I am serving over a spring mix. I’ve used other recipes from Allrecipes before but never created a profile. This one’s success has made me “join”. Thank!
