Crocktoberfest 2020

Hello friends! 




Happy October! It’s truly been a long time since I updated this blog. You will see it become more and more active over the next little while as I focus on sharing more about the Frugal Girl Eats adventures. 


2020 has been a crazy year, hasn’t it? It seems to be flying by and crawling along at the exact same time. We are so grateful to remain healthy (so far) and I hope you are too! 


This fall brought a brand new change to our home - a home schooling adventure! Yep - we took the plunge and dove in (maybe for one year only, maybe more!). We are taking it one day at a time and I will share our journey here too.

Now that you are all caught up (hahah!), let’s get cooking! 

We are going to kick off Crocktoberfest with a simple and delicious meal - Pulled Chicken!



Ingredients:

3 lb boneless skinless chicken breast

1 packet Epicure Pulled Chicken Seasoning

1 cup ketchup

1/2 cup vinegar 

1/4 cup brown sugar

Crusty buns to serve

Side salad (your choice!)

Place your chicken into your slow cooker. Combine seasoning packet with your ketchup, vinegar and brown sugar. Pour over your chicken and stir to coat.

Cook on high for 3 hours or low for 6 hours, then shred chicken. TIP: use your hand mixer for quick and easy shredding! 

 



We love to serve our pulled chicken on toasted buns. (I sometimes spread garlic butter on mine prior to toasting under the broiler!). Add a side salad and voila! Dinner is served!

Leftovers are great on pizza or nachos! Yummmm!! 


Don’t happen to have our Pulled Chicken mix on hand? Try making your own: 

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 black pepper

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 tsp chili powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp dry mustard

1 1/2 cups ketchup

2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Mix and toss with chicken!! 🙂 


Thanks for popping by for Day 1!! I would love for you to follow me over on Instagram  and Facebook. I share lots of daily content - so you won’t get bored 😀See you tomorrow with another yummy idea.
