Score big with your guests with a little bit of sweet heat! This recipe works well for a football party—the extra liquid in the slow cooker keeps the chicken nice and juicy all day long. —Julie Peterson, Crofton, Maryland

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 8 thighs)
  • 3/4 cup brown ale
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 12 slider buns
  • Optional: Sweet pickles and additional Sriracha sauce

Directions

  • 1. In a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 8 ingredients. Add chicken and ale; toss to coat. Cook, covered, on low until chicken is tender, 6-8 hours. Remove meat; when cool enough to handle, shred with 2 forks.
  • 2. Strain cooking juices; skim fat. Transfer juices to a small saucepan; bring to a boil. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into saucepan. Return to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add chicken to the sauce; toss to coat. Serve on buns. If desired, add pickles and additional Sriracha sauce.
