BBQ Chicken

Quick update: Bug is a full time walker now! We have less than 2 weeks til her first birthday. She's growing up too fast, starting to look more and more like a toddler.  She's taking her first trip to the fair tonight, so excited and looking forward to pigging out on good fair food. 
That being said, I do not need to cook dinner tonight. But I will not disappoint, I'm cooking lunch for the Hubby, Faja In Law, and a friend/co-worker, as they're working on a field near by. And what a better way to prepare lunch than in the crock pot for the morning.

**This recipe feed 4-6 people ( I will not have any leftovers for my freezer meals, but 3 happy and full men will leave my house very satisfied, I hope)**

Ingredients:
4-6 chicken breasts (3-4 pounds of your choice of chicken meat) boneless and skinless
1 18oz bottle of Sweet Baby Rays barbecue sauce
1/4 cup of vinegar
1/4 cup of brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon of honey
1 teaspoon of garlic
1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes

  1. In a bowl, mix together barbecue sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, honey, garlic, and pepper flakes.
  2. Put chicken breasts in crock pot.
  3. Pour sauce over chicken.
  4. Cover with lid and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours.
**Tip: I poured the vinegar into the pretty much empty sauce bottle and shook to get what was left and stuck to the sides. **

Make up some mashed potatoes, southern made biscuits, and Iced Sweet Tea, and ENJOY!

Day 5: I'm thankful for this little angel that God put into my life. Sure, I had plans, but His plans were different, and better, and I couldn't be happier with the path my life has taken. I'm so thankful to have been blessed to take care of Bug, watch her grow and learn, seems like every morning we wake up she looks and acts more and more like a toddler and less like a baby. Best year of my life. Looking forward to being thankful for many more wonderful years with my daughter.
