This chicken was awesome! We cooked it all day (8hrs) on low and it turned out fabulous! It is pretty spicy but if you get it too hot you can always tone it down with a little honey. Overall great recipe! We'll be having this often!

My family thought these were very good. The chipotle chiles gave it a nice "zing". I served these on hamburger buns with a slice of pepper jack cheese on it and they were very tasty. I am always looking for good recipes using a crockpot, and this one is definitely a keeper. Thank you for sharing.
