  • 1 tsp cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp chili powder

Method
 

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the barbecue sauce, cider vinegar, chili powder, garlic powder, and ground allspice.
  2. Bring the sauce to a simmer, cooking for about 3 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.

  4. Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture onto the bottom half of each slider bun.
  5. Top each slider with a dollop of coleslaw, if desired, and cover with the top half of the bun.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy these irresistible barbecue pulled chicken sliders!

Notes

Pro Tip:
  • For an extra kick of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of smoked paprika to your barbecue sauce mixture. It adds a delicious smoky depth that takes these sliders to the next level!
  • If you're short on time, consider using pre-cooked rotisserie chicken instead of cooking and shredding your own. It's a convenient shortcut that saves time without compromising on flavor.
