  • 24 Slices Provolone or Swiss Cheese or 12 of each

Instructions

  • Place ingredients into large slow cooker. Cook on low for 8 hours (or high for 4 hrs). Turn slow cooker off, shred chicken and let sit in juices for 30 minutes. (makes 4-5 cups shredded chicken)

Golden Onions

  • In large pan over medium heat, mix onions, oil and salt. Cook for 50-60 minutes or until golden brown. Stir occasionally while cooking.

Sandwiches

  • Preheat oven to 375°F

Notes

*The shredded chicken recipe makes enough for 2 batches. However, all other recipes/ingredients need to be doubled for a second batch.
