BBQ Chicken

This one is perfect for the Superbowl, which for me is all about food. Serve on small soft rolls as sliders. For a party, make a little slider bar with chopped onion, shredded pepper jack cheese, diced hot peppers and sour cream.

OR another good side dish is backed potato chips....ill post that next

• 1 medium onion, diced
• 1 small jalapeño or spicy pepper, diced (2 if you want it spicy)
• 1 diced green pepper
• 1 clove garlic, diced (I put it in everything)
• 2 lbs chicken (I would use 1.5 lbs of boneless skinless breast and .5lb boneless skinless thighs)
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 2 tablespoon Montréal chicken: http://www.mccormick.com/Products/GrillMates/Seasoning-Blends/Grill-Mates-Mesquite-Seasoning.aspx
• 1/2 tablespoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup cider vinegar
• 1/2 beer (any kind)
• 1/2 cup BBQ sauce - anything but honey flavored
• 3 or 4 cans diced tomatoes (I use 1/2 roasted tomatoes & 1/2 regular)
  

Put all ingredients in the crock pot on low for 6 hours. The order doesn’t matter as long as you have enough liquid to cover the meat. You can add more tomatoes or beer, if necessary.
Chicken will be cooked after 3 hours, the rest of the time will allow the chicken to fall apart. Taste the sauce half way through and add more spice if necessary also, use 2 forks to pull chicken apart after about 3 hours.
