Crockpot BBQ Chicken

Many thanks to Erin over at $5 Dinners for her inspiration with this recipe. I simply added/adjusted a few more ingredients to her wonderful creation. My family loved this and it was so easy to do.

Crockpot BBQ Chicken

4 chicken breasts
8 slices of bacon
1 cup bbq sauce (I used KC Masterpiece Sweet & Tangy, and it was perfect)
3 T lemon juice
1 large granny smith apple, peeled & cored
1 T dried parsley (or fresh)
1 t. garlic powder
2 t. sea salt

Wrap chicken breasts with slices of bacon, 2 per breast. Place in a 6 quart crockpot (you could try 4 quart, but may need to lengthen cooking time, especially if your chicken is frozen).

In a bowl, shred apple and mix with bbq sauce, lemon juice, parsley, garlic powder, and salt. Spoon on top of chicken. (If your chicken is layered, place a bit of sauce between each layer). Cook on high for 4-6 hours, or on low for 6-8. If chicken is frozen, lengthen cooking time. Chicken should register 165F when fully cooked.

Enjoy!

  1. that sounds so good! And I am sure you know this, but I just discovered it. If you put dry beans in your crock pot and cover them with a few inches water and some salt, then just cook on low for 8-10 hours they are PERFECT! Just put them in before bed and you have perfect beans to make anything in the morning! :)
