Slow Cooker Bacon Wrapped Apple BBQ Chicken
I love chicken, but I will admit, the family and I can get bored with it from time to time. So, I love finding new ways and fun ways to cook chicken, especially in the slow cooker. And it’s an added bonus if the kids like it 😉 This easy slow cooker recipe has bacon, apples, and BBQ sauce, how could you possibly go wrong with all that deliciousness in one meal?!
I had some delicious green tart apples from Crunch Pak and since they were sliced, juicy, and ready to go, they were the easy to use for the apples part of this recipe. For the bacon, I did toss it on the skillet for a few minutes before I wrapped the chicken in it because I like my bacon crispy. I don’t know about you, but whenever I wrap anything with bacon it never comes out as crispy as I would like it, so, my thought was that if I cooked it up a little first that would help…and it did.
The tart apples were the perfect balance of flavor to the BBQ sauce, and bacon…well, bacon makes everything better.
