Sweet and Tangy Chicken
Spicy barbecue sauce blends with sweet pineapple in this quick-to-fix chicken dish. It's tasty enough for a company dinner; just add a salad and rolls. —Mary Zawlocki, Gig Harbor, Washington

Excellent, love the sauce! I make the sauce all the time!
Easy. I found this to be better than other similar crock pot recipes.
I made this recipe today and it was very easy and I'd try it again BUT, it didn't have a lot of flavor. I used a full bottle of Bulls Eye BBQ sauce, a can of chunked pineapple, 5 cloves of garlic minced, a full onion sliced, a chunked green pepper and of course 8 chicken breasts. The chicken was very tender (I cooked it in my slow cooker for 7 hours) but I can say I was disappointed that is wasn't more flavorful. What could I have done wrong and how could I doctor it up next time?
My family loves this! It's got a nice bit of heat to it.....not your boring chicken recipe. Your Crockpot Recipe Book has this recipe.....but with TWO bottles of BBQ sauce......that is the one I made!
We loved this recipe. As written, it would be absolutely delicious, but in addition to the listed ingredients, I added several cut up carrots, and another pepper (red). I had some leftover green beans so put those in too. I used a smoky/tangy barbecue sauce - I think any would be good though. One thing I love about the recipe is that it's easy to put together but tastes as though you worked long and hard on the sauce. We love it and I'll make it again, definitely. Oh -- I cooked it for a few hours on the high setting of my crockpot, then turned it on low for another couple of hours to cut down on cooking time. I did use a bit of cornstarch at the end to thicken it a little but wouldn't say that is necessary.
My husband and I think this recipe is terrific! I used Sweet Baby Ray's regular BBQ sauce. I would love to make it again. I can see where one could get a lot of variety with this recipe, just by using different BBQ sauces.
Wow!! My family really liked this recipe! So easy to make and was great over the rice. Will plan on making this many more times ..
Great recipe!!!! I tried it over rice & also shredded it & had it on a bun as a pulled BBQ sandwich & loved it more that way. This will be recommended by me as a great & easy recipe. Thanks for sharing it :)
The whole family loved it. It only took 5 minutes to prepare if that. The kids loved it as well. I put extra pineapple and bell pepper.
I cut the recipe in half for my son and me. I did not need a whole bottle of barbecue sauce. My son really liked it. It was great over rice with green beans on the side.
