  1. Begin by patting the boneless, skinless chicken breasts dry with paper towels, then season them generously with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine a cup of Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce, a quarter cup of brown sugar, two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, and two tablespoons of olive oil. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Transfer the seasoned chicken breasts into your crockpot, arranging them in a single layer.
  4. Carefully pour the prepared sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
  5. Cover the crockpot with its lid and set it to cook on low for 4 to 6 hours or high for 2 to 3 hours until tender.
  6. Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crockpot, mixing it with the sauce.
  7. Spoon the flavorful Sweet Baby Ray’s Crockpot Chicken over fluffy rice, or pile it onto toasted buns for a satisfying sandwich.
