I don't feel like cooking lately (as I have a very naughty boy on my hands), so I threw this together and it was REALLY good! And probably the easiest meal I have ever made!
I don't feel like cooking lately (as I have a very naughty boy on my hands), so I threw this together and it was REALLY good! And probably the easiest meal I have ever made!
 |
| Only 3 ingredients!!!! (And rice, if you chose to serve it over rice. Yes, mine was minute rice. I am that lazy!) |
 |
| Target has TONS of good sauces! So much easier than making your own! This has pineapple, orange and mango it! Mmm! |
 |
| Just dump it all in! |
Ingredients:
4-6 Boneless Chicken Breasts (mine were still frozen!)
1 Bottle Archer Farms Hawaiian Style Barbecue Sauce (from Target)
1 20 oz. can Pineapple Chunks, drained
Directions:
Spray the inside of your crock pot with cooking spray for an easy cleanup! Place frozen chicken breasts in the crock pot and cover with sauce. Empty can of drained pineapple chunks on top. Cook on High for 2-3 hours or Low for 4-6 hours. Shred chicken with two forks while still in the crock pot so the chicken will be well coated with sauce. Serve over rice.*Sometimes I also throw in a chopped up green pepper and chopped onion . . . it tastes good with or without it.
Sounds soo yummy! Thanks for the idea!
ReplyDeleteLooks tasty!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the follow! I'm following you now and hope you have a wonderful weekend!

This looks absolutely fantastic! I bet it would be great inside a tortilla too!
ReplyDeleteI'm always looking for good crockpot meals, I can't wait to try this one!
ReplyDeleteThat looks REALLY good!
ReplyDeleteOH MY WORD! That looks awesome! I'm totally going to make that! I'm new to your site, but I'm definitely coming back! Thanks for this tasty recipe!
ReplyDeleteWe have that sauce at home and it's wonderful! I'll have to buy another bottle to use for making this in the crockpot. Thanks for the great idea!
ReplyDeleteMy mouth is watering just from reading this! Will definitely try this!
ReplyDeleteI made this tonight and it was so good! It even had a little kick to it :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteMade this for dinner tonight! Was so easy and delicious, plus my husband LOVED it!!! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm making this for dinner tonight. How much BBQ sauce did you pour over the chicken? That might be a super easy question, but I've never cooked anything other than mac-n-cheese...so I'm not cooking-smart yet.
ReplyDeleteI am so trying this !!!
ReplyDeleteWhat size is your crockpot? Mine is tiny, tiny... I want to know how to adjust. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAh, I LOVE Pinterest! Trying this recipe today! So glad it was "pinned." :)
ReplyDeleteThe crock pot can be a busy woman's best friend. Thanks for sharing this...can't wait to try it. I have chicken breasts in the crock pot right now with Lawry's Sweet & Sour BBQ Marinade. Will serve it over rice with a salad. If you haven't tried any of the Lawry's marinades they are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Love I am not the only lazy one around! :) I am so lazy that I use these liners for my crock. No clean up! Yay!! Again thanks for sharing! I can't wait to make this!!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.reynoldspkg.com/reynoldskitchens/en/product.asp?cat_id=1337&prod_id=3200
Where do you find those liners? I WANTTTTTTTT
DeleteI have bought them at Target. They're sold alongside the foil, plastic wrap, etc. They come in a box of 4.
DeleteJust made (and ate) this as my first ever self made crock pot meal and it was so easy and absolutely delicious. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to pop in to say that I tried this recipe and it was AMAZING!! It's so flavorful, and you just throw it in the crockpot in the morning and it's ready by dinner time. I cooked the chicken for about seven hours on low (my slow cooker seems to take a little longer than most recipes require) and the chicken was super tender and fell apart by dinner time. One suggestion - next time I'm going to add in peaches! I thought that would give it a little extra flavor and it'd be even better!
ReplyDeletei put this in my crockpot this morning. i can't wait to get home and try it. i never realized how many different sauces target has!
ReplyDeletethis is going in the crockpot now! will comment later after we try it:)
ReplyDeleteFound this on Pinterest!! It's what's for dinner tomorrow at our house! Sound delish!! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm making this this week! It looks soooo YUMMY!!!
ReplyDeleteI have this in the crockpot for dinner tonight, thanks to Pinterest! Using kroger-brand teriyaki sauce since I had that on hand. Can't wait to check out Target for their sauces for another variation.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU for this amazingly easy and yummy recipe. I made it tonight (added some carrots and 1/2 onion). This is definitely going on my list of go-to dinners!
ReplyDeleteSaw this on Pinterest and can't wait to try this tomorrow! Thank you!

ReplyDeleteMy Target doesnt have any of the archer farms bbq sauces:( So I am trying mine with the Lawry's Hawaiian Marinade, mixed with alittle regular bbq sauce and the pineapple. Hope it turns out good. Can't wait to try all your recipes:)
ReplyDeleteSo sadly I couldn't find a Hawaiian bbq sauce so I am going to try out the sweet and sour bbq sauce I found..??? So who knows hopefully it will be okay
ReplyDeleteMade this last night, and the family loved it! I didn't have the fancy sauce from Target since we only have Wal-Mart in my town, so I bought Sweet Baby Rays "Raspberry Chipotle" bbq sauce (it was the fruitiest sauce I could find) and it worked great! So easy and delicious! I think we will use the leftover chicken for yummy sandwiches. :)
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to try this for our dinner on Saturday! It looks so yummy and I am just tickled to come across this blog site! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to try this recipe! It looks so good :)
ReplyDeleteLooks tasty! Following your blog! :)
ReplyDeletehttp://cookingupgoodness.blogspot.com/
Very easy to prepare, but my younger boys and myself found it way too spicy. However, my teenage son and husband thought it was perfect!
ReplyDeleteI cook this Sunday, and I have to agree with the other posters, this was absolutely amazing. My dinner guest loved it, even took some home. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI'm trying this for the first time today - just turned the crock pot on. Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteThe BBQ was pricey though, I didn't expect that. $4 for a bottle. Almost as much as the chicken... Going to look for a different sauce, next time! :)
I agree! I went to Target to get the sauce and to cook enough for everyone I would have to buy at least two bottles. I was kinda bummed out as I wanted to try it but couldn't bring myself to spend more on the sauce than I did on the chicken. However I think I am going to try the sweet baby rays that a previous poster said they used.
DeleteCan't wait to make this dish this weekend!! Looks yummy!!
ReplyDeleteAnything in a crockpot is worth trying, and this looks good and easy. Thanks
ReplyDeleteIf your looking for a little more sweetness, add brown sugar or honey to the recipe. A few tablespoons. Also, cook the rice in chicken broth with parsley added.
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm sold - definitely need to pick some of that BBQ sauce up next time I'm at Target so I can try this...it looks super easy and delicious! I'm a huge fan of onions and peppers so I would definitely add some of those. :)
ReplyDeleteWe ate our on sliders with some provolone cheese...delicious!!!!
ReplyDeleteMaking this right now, for dinner tonight! I got a Hawaian Sweet and Sour Sauce, at Shur Fine, to use! Can't wait to taste it!!! Gotta love Pinterest!
ReplyDeleteI made the Hawaiian bbq chicken tonight and it was SO easy! and a HUGE hit with the hubby! A+
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this recipe! Found it last night on pinterest and made it today! Woohoo - big hit with the fam! I didn't have time to run to Target for the special yummy sauce, so just combined our fave bbq sauce with teriyaki. When I was ready to serve, I took the chicken out & cut it up & then mixed some soy sauce & apricot preserves into the sauce and spooned over the top. Served with jasmine rice & stir fry veggies. Delish! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! That sauce isn't available in my area so I'm going to try it with a Hawaiian sweet and sour. Is there a sauce that's like the Archer Farms that's easier to find? I hope the sweet and sour turns out OK. Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteCannot wait to try this, it is currently cooking in my crock pot and my house smells wonderful. I have already passed the recipe on to friends as well.
ReplyDeletegreat
ReplyDeleteSo excited! I am cooking this right now, and the same as many other comments I am using a different bbq sauce (Caribbean Jerk BBQ sauce from KC Masterpiece)! I am hoping my crock pot cooks fast enough so I can have this for lunch at 1:00!
ReplyDeleteIt just smells too good to wait for dinner!
Just wanted to put this out there. Though I, being an adult, loved this, it is WAY too spicy for young children. I was really excited to make this for my family, but after I put the sauce over the chicken I tasted it and was like "wow, looks like I'm making PB&J for my toddler tonight..." Parents be warned.
ReplyDeleteNot all kids hate spicy food! My 2 and 4 year old were able to eat it!
ReplyDeleteI have to say my husband and I hated this recipe. And I was excited because it was so easy. Definitely wouldn't make it again.
ReplyDeleteBest ever!!!! My 2 year old has been super picky lately, and she ate every bite!! and had seconds!
ReplyDeleteNot impressed. Won't make it again. Sorry...
ReplyDeleteI too saw this on Pinterest and I am making it right now! Can't wait to eat it.

My Target is clearly smaller than yours (lol) so I bought Lawry's Teriaki Marinade. This might be a good alternative for anyone who doesn't think they would like the Hawaiian BBQ.
ReplyDeleteI used Sweet Baby Ray's Raspberry Chipotle sauce and we all loved it!!
ReplyDeleteWould the sauce be good with frozen meatballs? My hubby isn;t a chicken fan
ReplyDeleteI think that would be good! Like a sweet and sour meatball.
DeleteGoing to try this for dinner tonight! Excited to see how it turns out!
ReplyDeleteFound this on Pinterest! In the crock right now! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI'm making this right now, I didn't have the target Hawaiian bbq sauce though so I just used regular bbq sauce. I'm looking forward to it!
ReplyDelete@debcom,
ReplyDeleteI think it would be delicious with meatballs! Let us know how it turns out!

I featured your recipe on our blog this week!
ReplyDeletehttp://notesfromthenelsens.blogspot.com/2012/01/cooking-with-mom-four-pinterest.html
New follower! Happy cooking! :)
This was amazing! I added a couple tbsp of chopped green onion just for kicks. Family loved it too, so will be a regular menu item. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteSounds amazing, i just have a quick question.. how long should i put the chicken in for if the chicken is completely thawed out?!
ReplyDelete@Unknown- If your chicken is completely thawed, I would cook it on high for 1.5-2 hours OR on low for 3-4 hours. Any longer than that and your chicken might dry out.
ReplyDeleteThose of you that have tried the Lawry's Hawaiian Marinade in this recipe how did it turn out? I just bought all the ingredients,can't wait to cook it up this week!
ReplyDeleteI made this last night and posted it on my blog...
ReplyDeletehttp://domchallmom.blogspot.com/2012/02/crock-pot-hawaiian-chicken.html
We LOVED this recipe and have made it several times since I first found it on Pinterest. I too am looking for an alternative to the Archer Farms because I find it is pricey. Lots of good substitutes out there by the looks of the comments. I would agree that it has a slight kick to it - and I would also agree that there are a lot of kids out there that love a kick to their food, it's all about what you get to experience. I did add a can of mandarin oranges too, I think maybe they were overpowered by the other flavors, but it was nice to bite into regardless. Additionally, the next time around I will use chunk vs crushed pineapple (which was all I had the first few times) because I love hitting the chunks of fruit. Thank you so much for your blog!
ReplyDeleteLoved this made it for dinner tonight....I shared on my blog. You guys have an awesome blog Im soo glad I found you guys!! Thanks for all the great stuff.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone tried freezing their leftovers of this dish? If so, how were they? (and you're probably all going to say there were NO leftovers- ha!) Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteHow long should you cook it for if your chicken is not frozen?
ReplyDelete@Julie,
ReplyDeleteIf your chicken is completely thawed, I would cook it on high for 1.5-2 hours OR on low for 3-4 hours. Any longer than that and your chicken might dry out.
Thanks for sharing! Can't wait to try it! Do you think it would taste good still without the pineapple?
ReplyDeleteWow, very yummy and definitely the easiest thing I have ever made! 5 stars! It was too spicy for my little guy but hubby and I loved it, we even added red pepper flakes because we love spicy stuff! Thanks for the great recipe!
ReplyDeleteI just made this for dinner tonight and everyone loved it. I served it over yellow rice and with steamed broccoli as a side. Simple and delicious. I will definitely make it again soon.
ReplyDeleteI made this today. So good! I cooked it on low for 4 hours in my old crock pot. I just shred the chicken and put it back to cook some more since it was not done, but that's OK! I was worried it was going to be too saucy but with 5 chicken breasts this worked out perfectly. I was also worried about the spice level due to some comments, but my taste buds must be growing because it has the perfect amount. I didn't add the pineapple either but it's going to be so good! I did sneak a bite before I cooked the rest of it and I can't wait for it to be done! Thanks for the tip! Definitely making this again.
ReplyDeleteI only use my crock pot on weekdays for an easy dinner after work. I made this today, leaving it in the crock for 10ish hours and it was awful. I came home to a slight crusty edge from the BBQ sauce. I picked it out. Made some brown rice. The flavor was very very concentrated and the pineapple was no good. I looked for any reviews that cooked it for 'work day' length of time but didn't really see any. Le sigh. I'm glad it's good for the shorter amount of time, but unfortunately it won't work for me! Hopefully this helps others.
ReplyDeletePerhaps you need more liquid in there so it won't get crusty. Consider not draining the pineapples but rather including the juice in the recipe. Maybe add some chicken broth? Make sure to mix any additional liquid thoroughly with the sauce. Don't give up just yet :)
DeleteIt's me again! Last night I turned this recipe into a Hawaiian Haystacks meal.
DeleteIn the crock pot I mixed together, with a whisk, the entire bottle of BBQ sauce, the pineapple juice from the canned pineapples, and two cans of cream of chicken soup. I cut up 4 chicken breasts into three chunks each and placed them in the sauce. I blended up the pineapple chunks (just a little bit) in a food processor and put that on top of the saucy chicken. Cooked on low for 6 hours.
The chicken pulled apart so nicely, and after I put it back in the sauce it was perfect for serving on top of rice.
There was much more sauce to make it a nice and moist meal, and the cream of chicken soup toned down the spice. I served it with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pineapple and chow mein noodles for layering on top, and of course rice to put the saucy chicken on.
So to Christy, and anyone else who has the problem of the original recipe not working well for longer periods of time: experiment! I'm sure the mixture I made would successfully cook for 10 hours.
Thank you Six Sisters for the great idea!
I made this last night, and my family loved it. I is a keeper. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteor throw in with some teryaki sauce! YUM!
ReplyDeleteI am doing this now, only I used a regular honey bqq (and added real honey)sauce along with some added some orange and lemon slices with the pineapple :)
ReplyDeleteReally Spicy dish. Excited to try the crock pot Hawaiian BBQS chicken.
ReplyDeleteMade this tonight and it was a BIG hit!! Definitely adding it to my recipe binder! Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI heard that you are not supposed to put FROZEN chicken into the crock pot because there is the risk that it might not reach the safe temperature of 165 degrees. I think this recipe sounds GREAT!!! but I wanted to share that for safety's sake.
ReplyDeleteI would like to make this however where I live...midland mi...I can't find archer bnrand bbq sauce...its a target brand but they don't sell bbq sauce & won't order any either...i ve also checked kroger,meijer & walmart no luck...I could just use a diff brand but I'm picky I want the same bbq sauce...anyone know where I could buy it in MI?
ReplyDeleteWould this work with a pork loin? How long would it need to cook?
ReplyDeleteHi Sammi!
DeleteIf you use a pork loin, cook it on high 4-5 hours or low for 6-8 hours
Just FYI - it's not recommended to ever put any frozen meats into a crockpot. The extra time it takes the crock to thaw the meat before it can start cooking allows bacteria to grow and you can get sick.
ReplyDeleteHave it in the crock pot right now. I used pork, since that's what I had on hand. And I had to use regular bbq sauce because all the "hawaiian" ones have mango and my daughter is allergic to mango. Hopefully it's amazing!
ReplyDeleteI've got this cooking at home in my Crock Pot right now! Thank you for the wonderful recipe idea!
ReplyDeleteI didn't go to Target, just my local grocery store. It's best I stay out of Target, I'll spend too much money ;) But, at Publix I found Lawry's Hawaiian marinade. Hoping that it'll be similar. I have it in the crock pot now :)
ReplyDeleteIs is crocking now! I doubled it as I like to have leftovers for lunch. Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteExcited to try this one tomorrow night! Thank you... I was looking for a little something to "spice up" just chicken in the crock pot with Hawaiian BBQ sauce. I'll be throwing mine over quinoa, though (it's a healthier grain). :)
ReplyDeleteMade this last night. It was not bad, but my boyfriend and I were not crazy for the flavor of the Archer Farms Hawaiian Style BBQ sauce. I would recommend taking a taste of it before pouring the whole bottle into the Crock pot!
ReplyDeleteCan you make this in a normal pot? I don't have a crock pot :(
ReplyDeleteThis is delicious!! Made it with regular bbq sauce on low for 5 hours, so moist! Served over brown rice. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteIs there any way this could be doubled and cooked on the stove top? I love this recipe and so do my kids (2 & 3 year olds) and I want to make it for our family get-together this summer w/ some polynesian cocktails. I don't think my 6 qt crockpot is big enough. Any thoughts on stove top prep? Thanks for all of your recipes!
ReplyDeleteHi Mimi!
DeleteI think that you could easily double this and cook it on your stove top. I have never tried it, so I am not sure the best way to go about doing it. I would possibly try cooking my chicken first, then adding it to everything else. Good luck!
You can also throw it in the oven. My sister-in law does a take on this...she takes thawed chicken breasts, any kind of BBQ sauce and a small can of crushed pineapples...and she throws the crushed pineapples over the chicken then puts enough BBQ sauce over the chicken to coat it. She bakes it in a Pyrex 9x13 for about 30-45 min (until the chicken is done). Then shred it. We eat it in a tortilla wrap with lettauce, tortilla chips broken up and a little extra BBQ sauce all wrapped into a tortilla. Eating it as a pulled chicken sandwich on a bun is also delicious!!
DeleteA tip for shredding...if you have a Kitchenaid Mixer, pull out the chicken out of the crockpot or pan (or however you're cooking it), throw it into your Kitchenaid bowl, and use the paddle attachement. It shreds your chicken perfectly!! Then put your chicken back into the crockpot or pan and mix it back in with whatever veggies/fruit that you're cooking with :)
I think this is really tasty! HOWEVER, this sauce from Target has quite a KICK to it! It's in the crock pot (done) and I'm not sure my young kids can handle the spice, my husband either for that matter. I think I'll try it again with a different sauce. It's SUPER easy, that's for sure!
ReplyDeleteTried this tonight. Guess what my kids loved it and it really tasted delicious. Thanks for sharing Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Chicken recipe.
ReplyDeleteI never heard of your blog until I googled pineapple chicken and crockpot. Now I'm seeing your name on lots of blogs! I will definitely remember this site because there are six girls in my family too! I am the second of six girls, no brothers!
ReplyDeleteMy target didn't have the BBQ sauce so I just bought a regular bottle. It was still tasty but not Hawaiian at all!! I'm thinking next time I'll add terryaki sauce!!
ReplyDeleteFound this on pinterest and it was great! I just didn't realize how spicy it was... at least my kids ate all of their veggies!
ReplyDeleteI bet this would be delish on tortillas (soft or crispy) too - Hawaiian Chicken Tacos!! Must try soon!
ReplyDeleteI accidentally added the pineapple juice and all but it was delicious! I also used a mixture of Lawry’s Szechuan Sweet & Sour BBQ,
ReplyDeleteKroger brand 30 minute Hawaiian marinade and Teriyaki marinade(mostly using Lawry's.) I served it over Uncle Ben's 90 second Rice Pilaf. It was so good and so easy! I will definitely be making this again and SOON!
I just put this in my crock pot...I tasted the Target sauce and it is spicy so I used half the bottle and added some regular BBQ sauce and a splash of Hawaiian terriyaki sauce from TJ's. I put in a half of a chopped onion and put the pineapple on top. My chicken was thawed so am trying 5 hours on low...I will report back...
ReplyDeleteIt was tasty! Next time I am making this as hawaiian sliders on those yummy Hawaiian rolls!
DeleteI'm a new follower and I definitely want to try this recipe!! It looks so good!!

I used equal parts Great Value peach chipotle salsa and Sweet Baby Ray's original bbq sauce. It was amazing!
ReplyDeleteCooking this tonight!! I was too lazy to go to Target for the sauce so I just used "Secret 7" BBQ sauce (it was on sale at Kroger) and I'm just adding some of the juice from the pineapple to hopefully compensate!!
ReplyDeleteI dumped the entire can of pineapples - liquid and all in the crockpot. :/ I guess I was too excited and didn't read the directions right - anyone make that mistake and not have any issues?
ReplyDeleteI've read that for food safety you shouldn't put meats into your crock pot frozen because they might remain at a low temperature too long - just a heads up.
ReplyDeleteMade it last night for a church potluck later today. It smells and taste amazing! Can't wait to see if the choir likes it.
ReplyDeleteI'm making it tonight
ReplyDeleteThis is now one of my husband and I's fav's. One of few recipes that is on about an every 2-week rotation. Amazing over white rice seasoned with a little ginger and ground red pepper or with King's Hawaiian Sweet Rolls for a mini-slider deal!
ReplyDeleteIs it alright to use marinade instead of barbeque sauce?
ReplyDeleteI found your blog via Pinterest last night, and I saw this recipe. It's currently in my crock pot for tonight, and I'm so excited! Starting a blog was such a clever way for you sisters to keep in touch and share things; thank you for sharing with everyone else too! :)
ReplyDeleteI made this meal for dinner yesterday...It was super easy - just throw things in the crock pot, fairly inexpensive around $7.00 (I did think the sauce at Target was a bit pricey at around $4)...I cooked on low for 6 hours and we had it over rice...The taste was awesome and then it hit me- the spicy heat of the dish I had a hard time finishing my serving! If I ever make this dish again I need to find a way to tone down the spicy of the dish....My husband was able to eat it ok - he loves spicy things - but I think it was even a little too much for him...I do not think my grandson would have been able to eat it...
ReplyDeleteMade this yesterday and it BURNED! I set my crock pot on low for 6 hours (it switches to warm after the time is up) and added extra liquid since I knew I was going to be at work longer. I came home after about 8.5 hours and it was burned all around the edge about 2". And oh my gosh did my house stink! The chicken in the middle was ok, but anything touching the sides was done for. I've never burned anything in my crock pot before so I'm thinking for me this just isn't the best to be in for longer than 6 hours.
ReplyDeleteIm making this tonight on low. I cant wait to see how it taste. I love all the feedback.
ReplyDeleteIt helps me determine if I should try new recipes. But i have to admit im skeptical about its simplicity.
I needed a quick crockpot go to recipe for some chicken I had forgot to freeze. This was perfect. I only had some generic bbq sauce on hand and it seemed a little bitter for my liking. I ended up throwing in some cinnamon and honey which was perfect. Served it over some white rice and everyone loved it. My mom said it made a perfect sweet and sour type sauce and she is PICKY about sauces! This is a recipe I'm keeping!!
ReplyDeleteI'm trying this right now with what I had on hand, because the Target sauce was way too $$ for my budget/bottle. I have the frozen chicken breasts, with some Kikkoman sweet and sour glaze, Kikkoman teriyaki glaze and a dash of BBQ sauce. Not quite sure how this will turn out, but hopefully good. I also forgot pineapple ):
ReplyDeleteI want to freeze leftovers. But how do I reheat it without being a soggy mess? Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI would just thaw it and then reheat it in a microwave safe bowl.
DeleteThank you!
DeleteHow many would you say this serves? I'm looking for a crock pot meal for 9 adults, 2 kids and wonder if I would need to double this. Would it even be possible to double this in 1 crock pot? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI would double it since it calls for 4 to 6 chicken breasts and it's so yummy you may want seconds! The biggest crockpot is usually 6 quarts. May take a little longer to cook if it's all in one crock pot that is 6 quarts. Just watch it closely or use 2 crock pots. :)
Deletewe're not a huge fan of sweet for dinner ... definitely a more savoring family. That being said - thinking I'm going to make it with regular bbq sauce and the canned pinapple (maybe add in some of the pineapple juices) and make a whole wheat Hawaiian Chicken Pizza out of the shredded chicken! :) love that you can use frozen chicken breasts!
ReplyDeleteI just threw this in my crockpot...and forgot to drain the pineapple so I hope it comes out ok! I used Sweet Baby Ray's Raspberry Chipotle BBQ Sauce because I didn't feel like going to Target, lol.
ReplyDeleteIt should be fine. It doesn't have that much pineapple juice in a can. If anything, just will add more liquid! :) Have a great day!
Delete-The Six Sisters
The first time I made this, it was too spicy for me. I have made it quite a few times and now I don't drain the pineapple juice and I find that helps with the spiciness.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad to visit your blogs on Hawaiian BBQ Chicken. Needless to say, i found a recipe for my coming weekend & to have a memorable outback BBQ.
ReplyDelete
