  • Put the water in a large saucepan over high heat. Add the BBQ sauce and half the white wine vinegar. 
  • Halve the chilli lengthways, deseed, and finely chop. Add as much chilli as you like to your pan, along with a pinch of salt and pepper. 
  • Bring the stock to the boil; stirring it to ensure it combines.
  • Now, add all the ingredients with the chicken to a slow cooker and allow it to cook for over 8 hours on high.
  • When cooked, shred with a fork.

Making The Wedges

  • Later in the day chop the potato into wedges with the peel on, about the size of your index finger.
  • Spread them out on a baking tray, drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Shake the tray to coat the potato, then bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden and crispy, 20-25 mins.
  • Turn halfway through cooking. The fatter they are, the longer they will take to cook.

This BBQ Pulled Chicken Burger Is Not Strictly A Winter Meal

Serve with wedges and coleslaw in brioche buns for a hearty, easy midweek meal.

This recipe also lends itself rather well to alfresco dining. However, eating a hearty pulled chicken burger with crispy wedges and a light coleslaw is comforting on these cold and rapidly becoming darker evenings.

  1. I never thought of trying pulled chicken before – looks yummy. I definitely need to find some new inspiration for recipes – I tend to do the same few meals on rotation. We tried Hello Fresh via a friend’s introductory discount code last year and I was really impressed with the quality of the food. The recipes are so varied too!

  2. Couldn’t agree more, family meal time is so important. We try to make an extra effort at weekends as weekdays are a juggle. This recipe looks so good and I love that we still make some of our hello fresh meals from last year when we had the boxes
