The ultimate sandwich for any party, game day or simply an easy dinner, grab your slow cooker and try these Apple Bourbon Pulled Chicken Sliders made with Campbell’s Apple Bourbon Slow Cooker Sauce!   Whether it is a weeknight or a weekend, it seems we are running the kids from one thing to the next, or literally running ourselves, actually. While we try to fit everything in, simple meals are essential. Lately I have developed an appreciation for using the slow cooker. It truly is a time saver in the kitchen, and the result has yet to disappoint ~ especially with the latest creation, these Apple Bourbon Pulled Chicken Sliders.

Apple Bourbon Pulled Chicken Sliders begin in the slow cooker, cooking chicken breast in Campbell’s Apple Bourbon Slow Cooker Sauce. The Campbell’s Apple Bourbon Slow Cooker Sauce normally calls for pork (which is also delicious…I tried it!). But just as a busy mom has to be flexible in real life, I wanted to test the versatility of the Campbell’s Sauces.

To get started, simply grab the slow cooker, add chicken and  pour in the Campbell’s Slow Cooker Sauce. Campbell’s Sauces are easy to use, whether for an every day meal or game day get-together. Preparation was effortless and took about 5 minutes.

Once the chicken is done, it can be used in so many delicious, easy ways (pizza, wraps, salads, plain). Immediately, I had two cute little mouths eager to try the chicken. So I gave them each a bowl, which kept them busy while I assembled the Apple Bourbon Pulled Chicken Sliders.

Turning the delicious apple bourbon pulled chicken into Apple Bourbon Pulled Chicken Sliders is a snap!  Put the bottom buns in a baking dish, top each bun with cheese, and then pulled chicken and then with the top of the bun. Brush the top bun with a little poppy seed garlic butter and  bake until the cheese is all melty delicious.
