Shredded Chicken BBQ Sandwiches


2 whole carrots, cut into big pieces
2 celery stalks, cut into big pieces
2 shallots, cut in half - skin on
2 cloves of garlic, skinned, but not chopped
4 chicken pieces, bone-in
2 chicken bouillon cubes
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
4 cups water
----
BBQ Sauce
Buns
Cheese (optional)
Coleslaw (optional)

Place everything except the last 4 items in a slow cooker. Make sure the water covers everything, if not, add a little more. Put the lid on and set it for 4 hours.
When the slow cooker completes the cooking, remove the chicken pieces and shred them with a fork (or better yet, with your hands - let it cool a little first!) into a large bowl. Toss the shredded chicken with BBQ Sauce to coat (add as much as you like).
Scoop the chicken onto a bun, top with cheese and/or coleslaw, and enjoy!

*I LOVE this dish. I mean, I LOVE it! Not only is it super tasty, but requires very little effort. Set it in the afternoon and it's ready by dinner-time. I like to use a spicier BBQ sauce and top it with coleslaw to cool it down and add a nice crunch.
The best part of this dish? It makes it's own chicken broth to be used later for soup! You know, if that's what you're into.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. Colossians 3:23 & 24
