Savory Slow Cooker Crack Chicken Sandwiches

Instructions:

  1. Place the chicken in the slow cooker and sprinkle ranch seasoning over the top.
  2. Add cream cheese and chicken broth.
  3. Cover and cook on LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 4 hours.
  4. Shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker and stir until creamy and fully combined.
  5. Mix in the shredded cheese and half of the bacon; let the cheese melt completely.
  6. Toast the buns until lightly golden and warm.
  7. Spoon the creamy crack chicken onto each bun.
  8. Top with remaining bacon and any desired garnishes.
  9. Serve warm.

Variations

  • Add sliced jalapeños or pickled jalapeños for heat.
  • Stir in pepper jack cheese for a spicier version.
  • Add crispy fried onions for extra crunch.
  • Serve as sliders for parties or potlucks.

Tips

  • Toasted buns help keep the sandwiches sturdy and prevent sogginess.
  • If the mixture gets too thick, add a splash of broth to loosen it.
  • Cook the bacon extra crispy for the best texture contrast.
  • Leftovers store well — reheat gently to keep the sauce creamy.
