Instructions

Mix together the BBQ sauce: combine tomato paste, honey, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt and a little water.

2

Place the chicken breasts in a pot or slow cooker. Pour over the BBQ sauce.

Add enough water to just cover the chicken. Simmer covered for 25–30 minutes until cooked through and very tender.

4

Remove the chicken and shred with two forks.

5

Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir through the sauce. Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes to thicken.

6

Toast the burger buns. Pile the pulled chicken high.
