These simple but delicious Slow Cooker Honey Barbecue Chicken Sandwiches are a must for your dinner menu! Tender, sweet and flavorful shredded chicken, topped with creamy coleslaw on a toasty bun will be a hit for the whole family.

My slow cooker is hands down my favorite kitchen item. It’s used several times a week for overnight breakfast, soups, sauces, variety of shredded meats, lasagna, corn on the cob, desserts, you name it! If it’s not on your favorites list, then you’re missing out on how life-changing it can truly be. 😉 Summer time I usually have it on our back patio and there’s no extra heat in the house and during winter time you can make ALL the hot soups and comforting dinners in it while taking in the mouth-watering aroma all day! 

Slow Cooker Barbecue Chicken is the easiest 5 ingredient chicken dinner you can make! All you need is skinless, boneless chicken breasts, your favorite honey barbecue sauce, brown sugar, zesty Italian salad dressing, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce. The barbecue sauce paired with the Italian dressing creates a surprisingly amazing flavor! Dump it all into the slow cooker, set it and forget about it while it does all the work for you. Then a few hours later you get to enjoy a delicious dinner with very minimal clean up! It’s become one of our favorite meals. Incredibly easy to toss together – check, tastes great – check, and reheats well – check! 😉

Try this tasty dinner this week. I betcha everyone around the table will approve!
