Suggestions
This is probably my favorite way to cook bbq chicken in a crockpot. I made some peas, corn and mashed potatoes to go along with this. The applesauce/bbq sauce combination on the potatoes makes a great gravy!! Don't be surprised when you bite into it and forget that there are little chunks of apples in the sauce. It caught me off guard the first time.
