Apple Barbecue Sauce Cover Slow Cooker Chicken Breast Recipe
Yup another slow cooker recipe. I have a plethora of these because, at this homestead, I don’t always have the time to hang out in the kitchen. But really, you can’t go wrong with bacon wrapped anything, right?
Now, don’t go out and buy bottled barbeque sauce. I have a wonderful recipe to make at home and more then likely you already have the ingredients in your kitchen. It doesn’t take much time to make and is worth it when it comes to the taste.
What makes it apple barbeque sauce is the basic barbeque sauce, that you can use for anything, is slow cooked with fresh apples, which gives it a sweet taste along with the smoky bacon.
