15. The Eckers says:

    I set out to make this yesterday..only to get home from the store to realize I didn't have any chicken! So I decided to try it with a pound of ground chuck and pork sausage then call it sloppy joes. My hubby LOVED it. He says it tastes just like a Mcrib. He is in love!! Thanks :-)

20. Mandy says:

    I would also like to know if you shred the chicken for sandwiches.
    
    Thanks!!
21. Six Sisters says:

    A 12 ounce can.
22. Six Sisters says:

    You can definitely shred this for sandwiches. It is awesome on a roll or bun. -The Six Sisters
23. Mama Bee says:

    What kind of bbq sauce do you use? Depending on my recipe, I will use a sweet/spicy one or a sweet one... What do you like?
24. Six Sisters says:

    We use all kinds, usually the one on sale. We do like a good Sweet Baby Rays! :) -The Six Sisters
25. cherish phillips says:

    Can you use bottled coke as well as long as it is 12 ounces (I don't have any cans)? And also, do you just put the lemon on top of the chicken, peel and all? Thanks! =)
26. Six Sisters says:

    Bottled coke is great. And yes, put the lemon on top of the chicken...peel and all! :) -The Six Sisters
27. Marie says:

    I have a ton of juice left. am I supposed to?
28. Six Sisters says:

    I'm guessing you are talking about in the crock pot after cooking. We had juices left in the crock pot. You could use some of the liquid if you shred your chicken and want it juicier. Some readers put the shredded chicken on a bun or roll. Hope this helps. :)
29. July says:

    Letting this crock over night...used legs and thighs...will have potato salad and roasted corn. :)
30. Lori A says:

    Hello! I'm excited to try this for company tomorrow night. I'll be serving 11 - do you think I should double the ingredients? Thanks so much!
31. Cyd says:

    Recipe calls for 4 to 6 chicken breasts. So it would depend if they each want a whole chicken breast. If you are feeding 11 and some are men, for sure I would double it. You may need to do it in 2 separate crock pots with that much chicken.
32. Sara says:

    I bought all of the ingredients to make on vacation but just realized I forgot the crock pot!!! Can I simmer the chicken in a pot on the stove???
33. Cyd says:

    That should work. Just be sure to watch it closely so it doesn't burn.
34. Marlena says:

    I don't hAve lemon on hand just lemon juice. Think it will make a difference or should I just omit the lemon?
35. Cyd says:

    You could omit it all together or just add 1 teaspoon or so of lemon juice.
36. Shawn says:

    definitely going to make this for my lady for valentine's day, simple and sounds delish!
37. Belinda Aikens says:

    It is just my husband and I and seldom use our Crock Pot but would like to try this one, therefore, I would only use 2 chicken breast. Would I cut the ingredients in half? And how long should I cook them? Thanks!
38. Cyd says:

    You can cut the rest of the recipe in half when using 2 chicken breast, or you could also leave the recipe as is. It may not take as long to cook, so keep an eye on it and check for doneness.
