Instructions

Measure in the chicken stock, melted butter, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, soy sauce, hot sauce, mustard, onion powder, garlic powder and salt into the basin of a slow cooker. Whisk together until smooth.
Nestle the chicken breasts into the sauce.
Cook the chicken on LOW for at least six hours. (You can open the slow cooker up occasionally to shred the chicken and see how it's cooking, though you certainly don't have to do this.)
When the chicken has cooked through in the sauce, prepare the coleslaw.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey, mustard, BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar and celery seed. Whisk together until smooth.
When ready to serve, brush the buns with additional salted butter and toast on a griddle or in a toaster oven.
Toss the cabbage and carrot coleslaw into the mustard mixture. (The cabbage will become wilty in the mustard sauce, so don't toss the coleslaw until it's time to serve! We keep ours separate in the fridge and will just throw in the amount needed.)
Layer the chicken and slaw on the toasted buns. Serve warm, and enjoy with your favorite barbecue side dishes.
