Ingredients

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.3 lbs. total, $3.47)

2 tsp smoked paprika ($0.20)

1 tsp garlic powder ($0.10)

½ tsp salt ($0.02)

½ tsp black pepper (freshly cracked, $0.03)

18 oz. BBQ sauce ($1.97)

Instructions

1 Combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

2 Sprinkle the seasoning over both sides of the chicken breasts.

3 Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker, then pour the BBQ sauce over top making sure the chicken is fully covered.

4 Place a lid on the slow cooker and cook on high for 2.5 hours or low for 4-5 hours.

5 After cooking, use two forks to shred the chicken. If the chicken does not easily pull apart with the forks, let it cook a little longer.

6 Serve the pulled BBQ chicken on a bun, on nachos, over a baked potato, on pizza, or with your favorite meal.
