Crock Pot Cranberry BBQ Chicken


Here is one of those crock pot meals that turned out even better than I had imagined.
Cranberry BBQ Chicken

Ingredients

6 chicken breast
2 cups cranberries
1 large onion, sliced
2 cups wine (I used cranberry)
1 bottle BBQ sauce (I used Sweet Baby Ray's)

Directions

Add everything except BBQ sauce to crock pot. Cook on high 3 hours (or low for 5-6 hours) and then pull out chicken and shred it. Put back into crock pot and add BBQ sauce. Cook for 1 more hour.

Kitchen Notes
We shred it to eat as BBQ sandwiches and nachos. You don't have to shred the chicken.  Serve with sides of your choice.

This looks like a perfect crock pot recipe, and I love the use of cranberries, which I never get tired of! But of course, you had me with BBQ!!! Delicious!! I would love if you would drop by and link up to my Super Bowl Eats and Treats Party!

I have so many cranberry recipes on my blog that I'm sure I'm starting to irritate my readers. But I pinned this to try anyway!! :)

I think this would smell like a little bit of heaven simmering away in the crock pot. It looks delicious! Hope you are having a great week end and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!

What a great crock pot idea! I bet this would work for a pork loin too. I am trying it soon....maybe tomorrow.

Hi, any suggestions for a non alcoholic batch? I always wonder what to use instead of wine....

Can you substitute cranberry sauce for the cranberries?

Susie Buetow said...

Hi Bitsybet- Oh sure I bet you can. I used fresh because that is what I had on hand. I would think 1 can would be fine. LMK how it turns out and if you take a pic, I'd love to share it with this post and give you credit!
