Wondering if I can use diet coke instead of coke?
I haven’t tried it that way Stephanie… but if you do, let us know how it turns out!
Delicious and so easy!. Will definitely be making again. Family loved it. Loved that it wasn’t a soupy boiled mess once it was all done. Next time will shred the chicken so every little bite is completely covered with the yummy sauce! So good!!
So glad to hear everyone loved it!
Can I use drumsticks instead of breasts? Thanks.
Hi Mia ~ Yes… this sauce tastes AMAZING on drumsticks, too!
Here’s more information on how to prepare the drumsticks:

Enjoy!
Do you put the chicken in frozen or thawed?
Hi Sarah ~ you’ll use thawed chicken to start the recipe. Enjoy!
Could u cook the chicken and bbq sauce with Coke all together for 3 hrs?
Hi Bobby ~ you could, but you’ll end up with a much milder more diluted sauce. I like to add it at the end so you have a thicker more flavorful sauce. Hope that helps!
I love all your recipes. They are so easy and very good. Everyone in my house eats it all up. No leftovers. Thanks!!!
Aww ~ you’re very welcome, Holly! I’m so glad to hear you’re all loving the recipes! 🙂
Can I use chicken tenderloins?
Hi Cara ~ yes… tenderloins will work, too! You may need to shorten the time a bit due to the smaller piece sizes, so just keep an eye on it.
Can I use plain bbq sauce? Thats all I have on hand. And can I turn this into pulled bbq chicken? Thanks!
Hi Charissa… absolutely! Plain BBQ Sauce works just fine, and shredding with 2 forks after it’s cooked is a delicious way to serve. ENJOY! 😉
