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

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.
