Crock Pot Barbeque Chicken

This saucy chicken recipe is also a crockpot recipe, one of our favorites, very family friendly (families who like more spice can just add cayenne pepper and diced hot peppers for added ZING). Links to other crock pot recipes below- including crockpot recipes that can be combined and frozen uncooked, and thawed and dumped in the crockpot on cooking day for cooking. You really cannot beat that for simplicity.

Crock Pot Barbeque Chicken
1 frying chicken cut up or quartered (we don't do this- we just use chicken breasts and thighs, boneless or bone in)
1 can condensed tomato soup (we make such a large batch that we use a giant can from the restaurant supply section of the grocer's)
3/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup vinegar
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon of basil
1/4 teaspoon of thyme

OR just use two or three cups of your own home-made bar-b-que sauce.

Put the chicken in your crockpot. Combine the other ingredients and add them to the crockpot. Cook on low for 6-8 hours
OR put this all in a roaster and cook in a 325 degree oven for 1 1/2 hours, maybe two. To increase the proportions (which we do, this only serves four), layer the chicken and put one recipe of sauce in between each layer.

Serve this with basil biscuits and a green salad, maybe some corn on the cob.

Here are some other freezer/crockpot meals we've made and posted about:

Freezer Meals: Days One and Two Dump Chicken recipe links for the crockpot, a tasty chicken legs with Italian tomato sauce recipe, chicken spaghetti, and a spicy chicken tomato pizza sauce (could also be used for dipping bread sticks), as well as feeding a family on less than .50 a person.

Freezer Meals: Day Three Crockpot Cashew Chicken

Freezer Meals: Day Four Mmmm, Crockpot chicken with creamy chive sauce

Freezer Meals: Day Five Crockpot Tomato Beef Stew

Freezer Meals: Day Six Crockpot Asian Style Pot Roast (This was a big favorite, and the recipe for the BokChoy/Carrot salad we include in this post is a delicious summer recipe, piquant, refreshing, and bursting with good flavor)

Freezer Meals: Day Seven Crockpot Beef "Fajita" Filling (not authentic, but still delicious inside a tortilla)

Freezer Meals: Day Eight Crockpot Pizza Fondue, or Pizza Dip- wildly popular with the teens and under, not so bad for us grown ups, either.

Freezer Meals: Day Nine Crockpot Spicy Sloppy Joes

Freezer Meals: Day Ten Baked Fish (not a crockpot recipe, but an easy to make ahead recipe)
