I make chicken in the slow cooker often, however, this one is always a big hit because of the sauce in it.
It's perfect for a potluck, events and is delicious even when prepared ahead of time for the big game parties.
The best thing about my slow cooker is everything that's cooked is falls apart tender.
The chicken in hot sauce is the perfect buffalo hot sauce sandwich! You can use this also over rice, pasta, baked potatoes and tortilla shells for an over the top taco!

I love buffalo chicken...this sounds so easy...I need to use my crockpot more often.
ReplyDeleteI also love meat falling apart.It can be so tender:) This is what I call a sandwich:))
ReplyDeleteThe slow cooker was one of the appliances we left behind when moving from Denver to DC earlier this year. But, I don't miss it. I've got a couple of heavy pots that can simmer on the stove or in the oven forever. The look and sound of your pulled chicken has me wanting to go out to breadfast (it's 8 am here) even though I never eat breakfast.
ReplyDeleteClaudia, this is just the thing for football fever folks, be sure to add to the football group at CES, they will love it - it sounds like a feel good, slap-your-mama sammie that I know is going in my line-up this season, along with many of your tail-gating foods... have a happy Sunday...
ReplyDeleteYou had me with comparing the flavor to wings. Perfect recipe to make for when I am rooting for my Steelers. Bookmarking this for game day.
ReplyDeleteI am sitting here looking at slow cooker recipes trying to come up with a good one and you hand me this. I see this recipe in my future.

ReplyDeleteI haven't used my crock pot in a while. I need to get on it! This would be perfect for a crowd during the last days of summer.

ReplyDeleteChicken, Sandwiches, and hot sauce. This sandwich is right up my husband's alley! It looks really tasty! I love using the crockpot for cooking meat! So tender and yummy!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so amazing. I am so impressed.
ReplyDeleteHoly yum! We are hot sauce lovers!! I make pulled chicken with BBQ sauce this way but never with hot sauce. My hubby will LOVE this. Must try soon!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds amazing! Buffalo chicken on a bun. How cool!!! And definitely going on my go to list.
ReplyDeleteWow this sounds simple, hot and delightful. I like that it doesn't have butter in it. I can't stomach hot wings because the combination of hot sauce and butter makes me feel sick to my stomach. This sounds great for a get together or super bowl party.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Wow! This looks perfect for our upcomming back to school season...a simple crockpot dish that everyone will like!! Yum!
ReplyDeleteOh I think this sounds better than hot wings!
ReplyDeleteSlow cookers do a wonderful job on meat and poultry, love the shredded effect. This is great for pot luck or tailgating party. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHmm, sounds like something my sons would really go for in a big way!
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of buffalo wings with the bleu cheese sauce, I love it. Not sure what the plastic liner is for, but those sandwiches look great. Is that Ciabatta bread rolls? oh boy.
ReplyDeleteThe crockpot does work magic on meat! This is positively mouth-watering Claudia! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great recipe. I love the idea of the crock pot, but don't have many good recipes! This looks like a keeper!
ReplyDeleteThis recipe comes just in time for football season. I know the guys in my house will be in heaven eating this during the game!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delicious SANDWICHES! I simply cannot wait to try it! Very interesting combination of ingredients. I am saving this recipe for later.
ReplyDeleteClaudia, there are a lot of chicken sandwich recipes out there but I like how different this one is, yet it's still super easy. The sauce is a great idea! Looking forward to making this at my family's next get-together.
