Crock Pot BBQ Pineapple Chicken

Servings 10 people
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 4 hours
Total Time 4 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Chicken breasts (2-4 pieces)
  • 1 package Bottle of BBQ sauce (16 oz bottle)
  • 8 oz Can of crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Onion powder

Instructions

  • Start by spraying crock-pot with Pam or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
  • Place thawed chicken breasts into slow cooker and poke each piece a few times with a fork to allow sauce and pineapple to better penetrate when cooking. Season with salt, pepper, and other spices.
  • Cover with bottle of BBQ sauce and can of drained, crushed pineapple.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours - or - HIGH for 2-3 hours.
  • Shred the chicken with a fork by taking the chicken out of the crock pot and shredding in a bowl (since this recipe turns out so juicy). Then transfer the chicken back into the crock pot to let it soak up the rest of the flavors for about 10-15 more minutes.
  • Serve in tacos or over brown rice with veggies. The original recipe recommends it in corn tortillas with avocado, coleslaw, and mango salsa!

Notes:

  • This will keep for up to two weeks in a Tupperware container in the fridge, it also freezes really well too!
