Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
Cover the chicken with the ranch seasoning and then add all of the buffalo sauce to the slow cooker.
Place the butter on top of the ingredients and secure the lid.
Cook for 5 hours on low. After 5 hours, shred the chicken thoroughly with 2 forks and mix well.

Cut it in half. Enjoy!
- If you want the meat to cook quicker, you can switch to the high setting and cook for half the time. However, I have found that this makes the chicken a bit tougher and not as moist.
- This sandwich can pair with so many great toppings. Pickles, ranch, and onions are excellent ways to add variety.
- When you shred the chicken, it is ready to eat. However, if you let it rest at a lower temperature, it will give the chicken time to absorb the sauce. It will also allow the sauce to become a lot more creamy as opposed to runny.
- This chicken can be used as a great buffalo chicken dip as well.
