# Tips from dashanddishes:

01 -
  • The chicken becomes impossibly tender practically falling apart when you look at it
  • Four hours of hands-off cooking gives you that slow-cooked flavor without any actual effort
02 -
  • Dont lift the lid during cooking every time you check you add 15 minutes to the cooking time
  • The sauce will thicken beautifully as it cooks so resist the urge to add more liquid
03 -
  • Spray your crockpot with cooking oil first for the easiest cleanup ever
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before shredding it holds together better
