Okay…do NOT put chicken breasts in a crock pot for 8-10 hours. Yeah it’s gonna fall apart but it’s also gonna be way overcooked. A breast doesn’t have enough fat in it to allow cooking for those long periods. The only exception would be if you were doing the whole bird uncut with skin on. If you do use a crockpot use thighs as they can be cooked for a longer period of time without destroying the taste of the bird but the meat will still be overcooked.
With that said…you can’t create barbeque in the kitchen. You need a real fire with wood or charcoal. Sauce has nothing to do with barbeque other than as a condiment for the meat. Even if the meat is pulled the sauce should be served on the side. When you go to a barbeque joint & they serve you sauce mixed in the meat, turn & leave. They’re just covering up the fact that they don’t know how to cook. Get yourself a Weber Smokey Mountain & learn how to use it. You’ll thank yourself when you see how easy it is to make real barbeque.

Simply put boneless chicken breasts in crock pot and add these ingredients:

1 chopped onion
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbs hot sauce (Louisianna or Hot Wing Sauce)
Salt & Pepper

Cook on HIGH for about 8 hours. Chicken will shred with a fork and voila! Serve on sesame seed burger buns with fresh cole slaw. YUM!

Easiest, believe it or not: A can or more of Manwich, mixed with your shredded chicken will be just fine. You can add your personal touch, such as hot sauce, additional sugar, vinagar, mustard, etc., per your taste. Serve on toasted buns.

You can put chicken breasts in the crock pot with BBQ sauce and just let it cook all day, once the chicken is fully cooked it will shred easily with a fork… Then you just serve it however you wish!
