I knew exactly what I was going to do with this slow cooker Italian BBQ chicken as soon as I saw the recipe. Po Boys. I knew that the tender chicken, cooked in BBQ sauce and Italian dressing, would be perfect on French bread and I was right. The chicken has just a hint of sweetness, a bit of a tanginess, and a bit of heat. Perfect for a sandwich of any kind. I loved the contrast of the melt-in-your-mouth chicken and the crunch of onion and iceberg lettuce. Yum!
I didn’t mess around making a sandwich. I loaded up on the chicken. Thick onion slices (soaked in water for 30 minutes to cut a little bit of that onion heat). Ripe tomato. Plenty of shredded lettuce. Heck yeah, it was messy. And messy is good.
