3-Ingredient Crock Pot Coca-Cola BBQ Chicken

Dump-and-go chicken slow-cooked for eight hours in barbecue sauce, and a small bottle of Coca-Cola gives the sauce a sweet, slightly caramelized tang that surprises everyone. Shred it right in the crock, and you'll have a budget-friendly, make-ahead filling that my two hungry kids fight over.
