Equipment
Instructions

- Add Worcestershire sauce, BBQ sauce, teriyaki sauce, lemon juice, garlic salt, and minced garlic on top of chicken.
- Pour in water, but don't mix it in with the sauce.
- Place the lid on top of the Instant Pot and move the valve to SEALING. Press the MANUAL (PRESSURE COOK) button and set timer for 18 minutes.
- When the timer is done, let the pressure do a NATURAL RELEASE for 5 minutes. Then move the valve from sealing to VENTING and let the rest of the pressure release.
- Remove chicken from Instant Pot and shred using 2 forks (it should fall apart fairly easily). Place shredded chicken back in the Instant Pot with all the juices and stir together.
- To make coleslaw, combine mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, mustard, and pepper, in a large bowl. Add your shredded cabbage.
- Place a scoop of shredded chicken on your bun and top with a scoop of coleslaw. Top with extra barbecue sauce if desired and serve.
Notes
To make this into a freezer meal:
- Place chicken breasts, Worcestershire sauce, BBQ sauce, teriyaki sauce, lemon juice, garlic salt, and minced garlic into a gallon-sized freezer bag. Place freezer bag into freezer and it will last up to 90 days.

Set timer for 25 minutes . Do a 5 minute NATURAL RELEASE when the timer is done. Follow the rest of the instructions as written.
