🤔 Pro Tips for BBQ Chicken
Q: Can I use frozen chicken?
A: It's safer to thaw it first for even cooking in the slow cooker, but if you're in a pinch, just add an extra hour to the cooking time.
Q: How can I make it spicy?
A: Add a teaspoon of red chili flakes or a few dashes of hot sauce to the BBQ mixture before cooking.
