Wondering what to make for your next party?
These easy chicken sliders that are ready in 25 minutes will do the trick. They’ll be great for Fourth of July, Labor Day, holiday parties, tailgating, and game days.
The chicken is braised in beer and bourbon before being shredded and tossed with barbecue sauce. I used a sweeter barbecue sauce (Carolina Gold from Trader Joe’s) but use your favorite. Try a spicy barbecue sauce if you want a kick.
Beer does a wonderful job of tenderizing meat as well as adding subtle flavor and this chicken is a perfect example of beer at work. Put your beer to work for you.
The chicken is ridiculously tender, juicy, moist, and the sliders will be a guaranteed hit with everyone.
My family loves pickles and the tangy, crunchy pickles are a great contrast to the tender chicken.
