    Hiii!! I’m confused. So does the chicken have to be cooked or raw?
    Thanks!

      Hi Tatjana,

      You’ll begin with raw chicken and cook it in the Instant Pot.

    I have a instant pot duo crisp and ur recipe calls for the instant pot to be put on meat setting and mine dont have that option. Can i still make the dr pepper / bbq chicken on regular pressure cook setting ? If so does the time change ?

    Do you have the nutritional info? Specifically the carbs. House with diabetics so I’m always counting the carbs
