Instructions
- Place 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of a 4 to 6-quart slow cooker (4 to 6 quarts). Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
- Drain a 1 (20 ounce can) pineapple slices and place the slices on top of the chicken. Slice 4 tablespoons salted butter and put a pat of butter on top of each chicken breast.
- To make the Barbecue Sauce, in a small bowl whisk together 1 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce, 2 teaspoons liquid smoke, 2 teaspoons salt, 2 teaspoons black pepper, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, and 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard. Pour half of the sauce over the chicken. Cover the remaining sauce and refrigerate.
- Cover and cook for 4 to 5 hours on high or 6 to 8 hours on low.
- After cooking, remove the pineapple rings and set aside in a bowl or on a plate. Cube 8 ounces cream cheese and add it to the slow cooker along with the remaining Barbecue Sauce.
- Shred the chicken and mix it with the sauce and cream cheese.
- Serve on 24 dinner rolls with a slice of cheese and a pineapple ring on top of the shredded chicken.
Notes
- Some of the pineapple slices may break up during cooking and can be mixed in with the chicken. You can always add additional pineapple rings as an option to add to the sliders for serving.
