    Sweet Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs are so easy, Made with barbecue sauce and a few other ingredients! We have made this recipe a lot and you will too.   

    Sweet Slow Cooker Sweet Chicken Thighs

    This Sweet Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs recipe is a definite keeper!  I love this kind of dump and go recipe! 

    Open your slow cooker, place the chicken thighs in, and dump this yummy mixture over top!  Come back in a few hours and dinner is almost ready! 

    You can serve this fabulous chicken recipe with literally anything you desire! 

    This recipe is too easy to taste as good as it does.

    This recipe started with 1 ingredient, barbecue sauce. When I have time I make my own barbecue sauce but more often than not I don't so I always keep my favorite, Diana's, around. I am NOT getting paid to say that. 

    I love garlic so I usually have to add that and I add honey when I am in the mood for some sweeter chicken.

    If Ken is making it he will always add hot sauce, just a few dashes.

    The mustard and Worcestershire were added to change the flavor just a little.

    We have made this recipe a lot. You will too.   Sweet Slow Cooker Sweet Chicken Thighs

      I'm loving the different types of recipes for my Crock-Pot, and I am trying to be open to new ways of preparing healthier foods for my family. It will benefit myself as well. This recipe is delicious. I will be making it again! Thank you.
