Slow Cooker Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwiches

This recipe for Crock-Pot Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwiches is included in our new 10 Crock-Pot Easy Freezer Meals. If you are coming to this page first and are interested in doing freezer meals, start here. This recipe does NOT have to be frozen first, if you are wanting to do this recipe by itself, then stay on this page and we will go from here.

We, of course, couldn’t do a 10 freezer meal without some kind of pulled meat recipe. They’re so easy to do and yet so tasty and seem harder then they look.

This one is sweet yet tangy and the Italian dressing brings on a fun twist to a BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwich.

The big thing I do with my freezer meals is I purchase fresh meat, so that it doesn’t dry out by being repeatedly frozen. If you are not doing the freezer meal portion, it won’t matter.

This recipe could also be done with using similar pork or beef cuts and sauce amounts as well. Thus why slow cookers are so versatile!

My family quite enjoyed the sandwiches and we ate them for several days. I purchase premiums buns to make the meal look like I had put a lot of effort into that meal.

One other thing… I enjoy doing with big batches of pulled chicken/pork/beef is cook it up, and freeze part of it for later meals.
