Steps

1Place your chicken breast in the slow cooker.
2In a small bowl, whisk together the BBQ sauce ingredients. Reserve 1/2 cup to use later for topping. Cover reserved sauce and place in the refrigerator. Pour the rest of the sauce over the chicken and add diced onions and olive oil. Cover and cook for 2-3 hours on high or for 6-8 hours on low. Once the chicken can be easily shredded with two forks, it's done!
3Shred chicken breast and return the meat to the slow cooker to soak up the juices while you finish the BBQ sauce and make your coleslaw.
4In a small pot, heat the reserved BBQ sauce over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it just begins to bubble and the grains of brown sugar have melted into the sauce, about 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
5In a medium bowl, combine coleslaw ingredients and toss until well mixed.
6If desired, lightly toast your sandwich rolls in the oven. Top with BBQ chicken, warmed BBQ sauce, and coleslaw.
