Crock-Pot BBQ Hawaiian Chicken



A crock-pot is a convenient, efficient, time-saving appliance to have on hand. The best times to use a crock-pot are when you know it will be difficult to get a healthy meal on the table. Whether you lack motivation to cook or are tired from a busy day at school or work, preparing a crock pot meal is a great solution.


Ingredients:
2 pounds Boneless, Skinless Chicken breasts 
1 1/2 cups Fresh Pineapple (put 1/2c. juice in the crock-pot)
1 medium Sweet Onion, Chopped 
1 bottle Sweet Baby Ray's Original BBQ Sauce
Hamburger Buns Or Kaiser Rolls
Tip: Add Worcestershire sauce or cayenne pepper for some extra spice

1. Defrost the chicken and place the meat on bottom, then cover with rest of ingredients
2. Cook on high for 3- 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. 
3. With a half an hour left in cooking time, remove chicken thighs and shred with two forks. Place chicken back in the crock pot and continue cooking to allow the shredded chicken to absorb some of the liquid. (You can shred the chicken right in the crock pot if you are not using a liner).
