Instructions
Mix together the BBQ sauce: combine tomato paste, honey, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt and a little water.
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.
Remove the chicken and shred with two forks.
Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir through the sauce. Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes to thicken.
Toast the burger buns. Pile the pulled chicken high.
Top with coleslaw and serve.
