I want to make BBQ pulled chicken in a crockpot (I use sweet baby rays barbecue sauce). I did it with the slaughter of pigs and it was incredible. I pulled pork cooked without sauce then when I got home, I know that chicken añadieron.Con is probably different. I leave for work and personal PRB be home 10 hours later (I have a timer in my clay pot). . . So, whenever you choose. Does anyone have a recipe using barbecue sauce, regular (not make). . . . and allow the chicken to no more than cooking. I am afraid that the sauce will burn on top when I cook so long?

I’ve never been able to overcook chicken in a crock pot. If you’re really worried, you can use frozen chicken, which takes a little less than 10 hours to cook. Just lay it out evenly and add a little chicken stock or water (between 1/2 and 1 cup, depending on the amount of chicken). Add the barbecue sauce after the chicken is cooked, otherwise there’s a good chance it’ll burn and make a big mess in the crock pot.

Put meat in the pot, add 1 bottle of sauce (I also like Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce) and then just enough water to cover the meat. Remove the meat for a second so you can stir the water and sauce together. I then stirred in some black pepper (1-2Tbsp), some garlic powder (1-2Tbsp) and some dried onions (1/4C) (you can also sliced real onions and some smashed cloves of garlic instead – I just didn’t have them on hand.) I also tossed in a few Russet potatoes, quartered. Put the meat back in, and start up the crockpot. 6 hours on high later, it was dinner time.
This is called braising the meat, and here’s the best part – it won’t over cook the meat. The liquid just reaches a certain temperature, and stays there. The lid on the pot will keep most of the water from evaporating, so things won’t dry out.
You could theoretically leave it simmering in its own juices and the sauce for days without overcooking or drying out the chicken.

Why not cook the chicken while you are sleeping to not over cook the chicken and re-heat when you get home. I would add the sauce later any way, but cooking for over 7 hours with chicken will dry out the meat, even if you do keep it on warm.

Lycopene is a fat soluble substance that is found in the blood and tissues of the testes, adrenal glands, liver, prostate, breast, colon and lungs. The precise activity of lycopene in the human body requires more study. Current scientific evidence about the association between lycopene and certain health benefits is mixed and remains controversial.
