You guys know I have been so obsessed with that low carb bbq cola sauce we adapted from one of our favorite low carb cookbooks: Bacon and Butter. So much so that we have created several STAPLE recipes on our personal family meal rotation.

  • Low Carb Crock Pot BBQ Cola Ribs
  • Crock Pot BBQ Cola Pulled Pork
  • Low Carb Instant Pot BBQ Cola Ribs
  • Grilled Stuffed Avocado

So, it was only a matter of time until we made Crock Pot BBQ Cola Chicken. Truth be told, we have been eating it in this family for months and I am just now getting around to getting it on the blog ;). I love making a big batch of this up for dinner and then freezing leftovers for easy salads and wraps on busy days.

How to Make Low Carb BBQ Cola Chicken in a Slow Cooker

This recipe is super simple. You just throw your chicken in a 6 quart slow cooker and season with salt. Then you mix together the remaining ingredients into a sauce and pour on top. Cook on low for 4-6 hours until the chicken is shreddable. If you want the sauce to be thick, remove the chicken and cook the sauce down on the stove or in a browning slow cooker on the saute feature until the sauce reduces and thickens up, then return chicken after you shred it. This chicken is great as a main on its own or on salads and in sandwiches and wraps.

Notes on Crock Pot BBQ Cola Chicken (Low Carb)

  • This recipe features our very favorite low carb bbq cola sauce we adapted from one of our favorite low carb cookbooks: Bacon and Butter.
  • If you are looking for other low carb recipes, you can find them all here.
  • We like to use boneless skinless thighs in this recipe. You can use chicken breasts, but they may cook a little faster.
  • We like to use our multicookers (likethe Ninja) to use the saute feature to reduce the sauce at the end. However, if you are using a traditional 6 quart slow cooker, you can just heat your sauce in a sauce pan on the stove instead.
  • As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
  • All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and shouldalways be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

      Hi Tammy-
      It will greatly depend on the tomato paste you choose to use. Tomato products vary greatly in carb counts.
