Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast pieces or equivalent 1/2 cup flour (I used Pamela's baking mix because we are gf) 1 teaspoon kosher salt 6 ounces(1/2 can) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed 3 tablespoons brown sugar 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar 3 tablespoons ketchup 1/2 tablespoon or so olive oil for browning chicken. The Directions: --cut chicken into strips or largish chunks --dredge in flour and salt, shake off excess --brown chicken in a skillet with a bit of olive oil (you are not trying to cook the chicken--just give it some color and get the flour mixture to stick a bit) --place into crockpot -- a 4-quart is probably the best size or put a piece of corningware or pyrex into a large slow cooker so your chicken doesn't get lost in such a big pot. --mix the rest of the ingredients in a separate bowl and pour over the top of chicken pieces --cover and cook on high for 4 hours, low for 6-8 Serve over rice, drizzle with remaining sauce. This tastes amazing all on it's own, but next time I might add a bit of red pepper flakes to the grown-up portions for a bit of a kick.
Ingredients • 1kg (2.2 lb) pork ribs, membrane removed Marinade • 500ml (16 fl oz) BBQ Sauce • 30g (1 oz) brown sugar • 4 Tbsp apple cider vinegar • 2 tsp garlic, crushed • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce • 2 tsp cayenne pepper Instructions 1. In a bowl, add all the marinade ingredients and mix until combined. 2. Slightly season the pork ribs with salt and pepper, and add to the slow cooker. Cover in the marinade. 3. Cook on low for six hours or until tender. 4. Remove from the slow cooker and place the ribs on a baking tray. Pour some of the sauce over the top. Broil in the oven for roughly 10 minutes. 5. Serve & Enjoy. Cooking Tips • You can use a homemade BBQ sauce, or one purchased from the store. Both will work perfectly in this recipe. • For the perfect ribs I recommend cooking on low for six hours. Alternatively, if you need them fast then you can cook them on high for three to four hours. • Remove the membrane for the ribs so that they will be super tender and easy to eat. • Broiling the meat can be skipped if you’re running low on time. • To ensure that this recipe is gluten-free, check to make sure the BBQ sauce and Worcestershire sauce are gluten-free.
Ingredients • 1 onion, diced • 1 tsp garlic, crushed • 1 green apple, peeled and diced • 1 Tbsp smoked paprika • ½ tsp cloves, ground • 1 Tbsp wholegrain mustard • 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce • 2 Tbsp tomato paste • ½ cup brown sugar • ½ cup apple cider vinegar • 400g (14 oz) diced tomatoes • 2 Tbsp treacle Instructions 1. Place all the ingredients into the slow cooker. 2. Cook on low for 8 hours. 3. Blend until the BBQ Sauce is relatively smooth. 4. Transfer to sterilized glass jars and seal appropriately. 5. Serve & Enjoy. Cooking Tips • If you love a smoky flavor in your BBQ Sauce, then try adding a couple of drops of liquid smoke. This liquid will add a ton of flavor to the sauce. • You can also try swapping the brown sugar for honey instead, or you can do 50/50. This alteration will give you a honey BBQ sauce that is delicious. • To get a perfectly smooth BBQ sauce, you will need to push it through a sieve. Doing this will remove any lumps and leave you with a silky-smooth sauce. • The type of apple that you use should be a cooking apple such as granny smith. With that said, most variations of apple will still work fine. • Treacle can be replaced with regular molasses. However, do not use blackstrap molasses as it can be quite bitter.
