A hands-off slow-cooker recipe that transforms chicken breasts into tender, spicy shredded Buffalo chicken, perfect for busy weeknights or game-day sandwiches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 23 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Buffalo sauce (adjust for spice)
  • 1/4 cup Ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing (for serving)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in your Crockpot. Trim excess fat or cut them in half if large.
  2. Pour the buffalo sauce evenly over the chicken.
  3. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the chicken.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until the chicken is fork-tender. Alternatively, cook on high for 3–4 hours.
  5. Shred the chicken in the pot with two forks, stirring to coat it in the sauce.
  6. If desired, fold in the Ranch or blue cheese dressing before serving.

Notes

For a creamier result, stir in cream cheese or additional dressing after shredding. Adjust seasonings based on heat preference.
