BBQ Shredded Chicken in the Instant Pot OR Crockpot

by

Get ready for probably the most simple recipe yet! This BBQ shredded chicken only has two main ingredients and when thrown in an instant pot is ready in no time at all. Oh, and it taste really good too and is extremely versatile!

This chicken would be perfect to add to your weekly meal prep menu. Since it takes 2.5 seconds to throw together you can easily get this going in your instant pot or crockpot and prep other foods while it cooks. Over the weekend I shared a little behind the scenes of my weekly meal prep. I touched on the magic of learning how to multitask in the kitchen in order to get meal prep done in a timely manner. Well, this recipe is perfect for taking that first step of learning how to multitask while meal prepping! If you missed my instagram meal prep stories, I saved them under my “Meal Prep” highlight in my profile. You can check it out here!

You can make your own BBQ sauce, but I took the quicker and more convenient route of buying my own. For any type of sauce, dressing, marinade or condiment I always use Primal Kitchen Foods. All of their products are made with real ingredients without any preservatives, additives or artificial ingredients. They are also free of dairy, gluten, grains and soy which is so hard to find in any type of sauce or dressing. You can just about guarantee to find a bottle of their Classic BBQ Sauce in our refrigerator at all times. I love them so much that they gave me a promo code to share with all of you! Using code kissbybrooke at checkout will save you 10 percent on your entire order!

Now, get your hands on some Primal Kitchen Foods Classic BBQ Sauce, get out that instant pot or crockpot and make this yummy recipe!
