Carolina BBQ

Being from England originally, and mainly growing up in the north and midwest, I didn't know much about barbecue until I went to grad school at South Carolina. There was one famous BBQ place in Williamsburg but as an undergrad I rarely had funds for such luxuries. Once I moved to the "real south", I had to learn about "real BBQ". Luckily I had some good southern friends to explain the difference between Carolina BBQ and the other kinds, and the joy of Maurice's BBQ and the pig park. Once I left Carolina and went back to Virginia, it was back to Memphis BBQ. Now that we are down here, I have decided to try and make my own version of Carolina BBQ. My husband doesn't really like the vinegar, but I like a touch of it. So here's my "semi-homemade" Carolina recipe.

One package of chicken breasts.
One packet of McCormick grill Carolina Country Marinade
One bottle of BBQ sauce - any kind

Make the grill packet as directed (oil and cider vinegar) and put in the crockpot. Add chicken. Add more water or chicken stock if it needs more liquid. I usually cook it about 4 hours on low or until the chicken falls apart.

Take out chicken, drain out liquid. Add about half a botttle of BBQ sauce and let the chicken cook another 30 mins - 1 hour.

All done!
