Two of my favorite things are slow cookers and barbecue sauce. When I found this recipe I knew I had to try it! It smelled so good the whole day cooking and tasted even better! This is super easy to make and now is my new favorite!

I've made this recipe many times and it's great. Just throw the chicken breasts in the crock frozen and top with the sauce. Perfect every time! Can't get much simpler!

Can you guestimate how much this recipe will feed? Im hosting a get together for 20-ish ppl.tomorrow night!! It looks yummm and easy--exactly what I need! :) Did you throw your chicken in frozen???
-
I'm Guessing 6 if you have good size portions... if you use small buns you definitely will get more. :) And yes, I ALWAYS throw in my chicken frozen. I can't tell a difference whether thawed or frozen.

Hi! Just wondering if you have done this with fresh chicken and how long you let it cook to retain juiciness. :) Thanks!!

Does the nutritional info on the Recipe Magic site include the rolls? I'm always looking at carb info for my diabetic daughter and I don't see how this recipe could possibly have 27g of carbs per serving for just the meat. Thank you!
-
Nevermind! It's the brown sugar...

I am confused how you got only 4 WW points for this... I put it in WW recipe builder using exactly the ingredients you gave and for 8 servings it is 8 points per serving. That's double the points and would make a big difference for someone trying to strictly stay within their points.

I love this recipe so much!! I have made it more times than I even know! I’ve used for trainings where we are feeding them dinner, I’ve used it to take to people, we use it just for ourselves! It is definitely one of our favs!!!
