This BBQ pulled chicken might just be the hero of summer crockpot recipes. It checks every box for a lazy cookout afternoon—effortless, saucy, and makes the whole house smell like you’ve been working hard (even if you haven’t). I tossed everything into my slow cooker before heading out for errands, and came back to a kitchen that smelled like a backyard barbecue pit. No firewood or sweat needed. It’s the kind of meal that earns you compliments with almost no elbow grease. Think: juicy chicken thighs, bathed in your favorite BBQ sauce, slow-cooked to that perfect pull-apart point. We use this for sandwiches, salads, tacos—you name it. I’ve even caught my husband eating it cold out of the fridge at midnight. It’s that good.
