- In a small saucepot, add the butter, brown sugar, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.

Notes
- Oh The Sauce! - The shredded chicken itself is nicely flavored with a hint of heat, but the sauce is really the star.
- Serve with pickle chips and white onion for a full Nashville hot experience.
- Warm It Up! Once the sauce starts to cool, it will separate so you need to keep it warmed if you aren’t using it all at once. Just place it back on the stove and whisk until it comes back together.
- Warm Sauce - Once the sauce starts to cool, it will separate, so you must keep it warm if you aren’t using it all at once. Just place it back on the stove and whisk until it comes back together.
- On The Side - I love to have that Nashville hot sauce on the side, so you can add as much or as little of the spicy sauce as you’d like.
