Description
This crockpot barbecue chicken recipe serves two people and is easy to make in your slow cooker with common pantry ingredients.
Ingredients
•
2 boneless chicken breasts
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
•
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
•
1 (18 ounce) bottle barbecue sauce, divided

3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
•
3 tablespoons brown sugar
•
1 teaspoon onion powder
•
1 teaspoon garlic powder
•
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on all sides. Place in a slow cooker; pour 1/4 cup barbecue sauce and vinegar on top.
2
Cook on Low for 3 hours.
3
Combine brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl.
4
Pour out liquid from the slow cooker and add remaining barbecue sauce. Sprinkle chicken with brown sugar-spice mixture.
