How to Make Hot Chicken Sandwiches in a Slow Cooker

Cook on low for 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally until the cheese is melted.
Serve on buns

Crock Pot Hot Chicken Sandwiches Notes

We make this recipe with turkey leftovers and even turkey lunch meat sometimes.
We used our 6 quart non-stick slow cooker to cook this up because we used Velveeta and it made for an easier clean up but you can use any 6 quart slow cooker (you might consider using a slow cooker liner).
If you cut the recipe in half, just make sure you either use a smaller slow cooker or watch carefully and stir often because it will likely get done a lot faster.
I found the original turkey recipe for these sandwiches in Gooseberry Patch’s Slow-Cooker Christmas Favorites and adapted it.
As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
