Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
  • 2 Cups Buffalo Sauce
  • 1 oz Dry Ranch Seasoning (1 Packet)
  • 1 Stick of Butter (½ cup)
  • Hoagie Rolls
  • Blue Cheese Crumbles
  • Provolone Cheese

Instructions
 

  • 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.
  • Switch the slow cooker to the warm setting and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • Load up the bottom portion of the hoagie with some buffalo chicken and top with blue cheese and provolone, if desired.
  • Cut it in half. Enjoy!

Notes

  • 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.
