North Carolina Pulled Chicken and Slaw Sliders

North Carolina Pulled Chicken and Slaw Sliders

If you are feeling lazy and don't want to drive over to Smithfield BBQ to pick up BBQ sandwiches, you can go the easy way and substitute a store-bought chicken instead. Try it - we guarantee you'll like it!

Slaw
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onion
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle juice (from a jar of pickles)
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
  • fresh-ground black pepper
  • 1 16-ounce package shredded cole slaw mix

Chicken
  • 1 cup bottled barbecue sauce (your preference - we love Sweet Baby Rays)
  • 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 3 cups roughly shredded rotisserie chicken
Durkee's French Fried Onion Rings and 12 slider buns
To prepare the slaw, whisk all ingredients together, except cole slaw mix, in a large bowl. Add cole slaw mix and toss to coat. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
To prepare chicken, combine barbecue sauce, vinegar and chicken in a bowl. Microwave about 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
To serve, place chicken on bun bottoms. Spoon slaw of top of chicken. Top off with onion rings. Place remaining bun halves on top. 

12 servings.
