  1. mj1963 REVIEW:

    Only thing I do different is to cube the chicken first as it cuts down on the cooking time. I then kind of partially shred it to put on sandwiches. Easy and good and always a hit.

    Loved it! I always feel bad just dumping in chicken and commercial BBQ sauce. This was much better!

  3. Jules REVIEW:

    Very Good. My picky eaters even commented on how good it was. I also added 1 tablespoon of mustard and 1 tablespoon of liquid smoke. Printed this recipe for a keeper.
