What is the difference in flavors between the different sodas?
Sherrie Hull says
I made this tonight for dinner. I give it 5 delicious!
Heidi says
Aww ~ thank you, Sherrie! So glad you loved it! 🙂
Micky says
Hey there! All I have is Diet Dr. Pepper. Would this work? Thanks!
Megan says
Do you have to use that brand of BBQ sauce?
Heidi says
Hi Megan ~ Sweet Baby Ray’s is by far my favorite BBQ Sauce to combine with colas… the result is delicious! Yes, you can substitute other barbecue sauces, but the flavor of the dish will definitely change. Hope that helps! 🙂
Heather says
I have a question……i don’t have any Dr. Pepper and i don’t have time to go back to the store……can i use regular coke?
Heidi says
Hi Heather! Yes… you can absolutely substitute Coca-Cola for the Dr. Pepper. It is delicious, too! Here are some tips for that: http://thefrugalgirls.com/2013/05/crockpot-bbq-coca-cola-chicken-recipe.html ENJOY! 🙂
amanda says
Do drain the chicken juice and then add the bbs sauce and soda? Or do you discard it and just. use the soda & bbq?
Heidi says
Hi Amanda ~ you’ll drain and discard the chicken juice, then cover the chicken with the BBQ Sauce/Soda mixture. That way you’ll have a nice sauce that’s thick, flavorful and not watered down. Hope that helps! 🙂
Amanda Long says
I also wanted to know about the texture of the chicken. I would still like it to be solid and not fall apart like shredded chicken, I was also wondering if I could bake this.
Rachel says
Hello! I just wanted to stop by and leave a comment to say 1. I will definitely be trying this tonight, it looks great! And 2, most importantly, one of your pictures, it has the salvation of the world written on it and I am happy to call you all family in Him… Just wanted to point out to you that your hidden message has been seen, and it will not go placed in vain. So encouraging to see it. Thank you my friends!!
Michelle says
Hi there! I’m definitely not a expert cook so I’m not sure how to figure this out.. I want to make this recipe for a pot luck at work. I need use way more then 5 chicken breast. How much more time do I need to take up to cook. Do I just triple the amount of ingredients. Sincerely, worse cook ever! Lol
Amanda says
I just made this and it’s pretty delicious! They’re really juicy. I used the same brand of BBQ sauce (it’s my fav) but in the brown sugar flavor.
For those wondering about making it pulled chicken it would probably work pretty well. I cooked it about 45 minutes after draining and adding the sauce mixture just because I was tied up with something else until then. When I tried to pick up one of the smaller breasts with a fork it practically fell apart. The bigger ones didn’t do this as much so maybe if it cooked a tad longer or on low for a bit.
Thanks for the easy, yummy recipe! I’ll definitely be trying some of the others.
Heidi says
SO glad you liked it, Amanda! 😉
Daniela Silvestri says
Sounds delicious! Can this be turned into pulled chicken?
Heidi says
Hi Daniela ~ absolutely! Simply shred with 2 forks after it is done cooking, then return to crockpot and stir around in the extra sauce for some delicious flavor! 😉
Heather says
Could you cook on low in the crockpot in the barbeque/ dr pepper mix for say 7 hours? Then shread the meat and serve on buns?
Heidi says
Hi Heather ~ absolutely… you can do that as well! I like to drain the juices first to make a thicker sauce, but it would definitely work to do it this way, too! 🙂 ENJOY!!
Beth says
I used frozen chicken breasts, put all three ingredients in at once and cooked on low for 6 hours. Incredible!!
Danielle says
Will this work with other cuts of chicken? My husband is far from a fan of boneless/skinless breast. :-/ Skinless drumsticks, boneless/skinless thighs, or maybe even whole leg quarters maybe? Thanks!
Heidi says
Hi Danielle ~ absolutely! Just keep an eye on the cooking time depending on which cut of meat you choose. Drumsticks typically cook for close to the same time, but I’ve had thighs cook a bit faster. ENJOY! 😉
Meredith says
Can I cook the chicken from a frozen state or does it have to be thawed before placed into the crockpot?
Ana says
So you cook the chicken in the crock pot with out any liquid at first? Will it not stick or burn?
Heidi says
Hi Ana ~ that’s correct. It won’t stick or burn, because it will end up cooking in the juices it releases. Hope that helps! 😉
