How to Make Mississippi Chicken Sandwiches in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
We love the Mississippi Style way of cooking at both my house and Cris and Mikey’s house. I noticed that Cris had made Crock Pot Mississippi Beef Sandwiches and posted the recipe, but we did not have a chicken version of that recipe. I knew I had to remedy that right quick! My family loved these chicken sandwiches. I bet your and your loved ones will too. If you need to feed a crowd, this recipe is super easy to double or triple. You will just want to use a larger crock pot.
One step that really adds a great layer of flavor is toasting your roll. It makes this sandwich taste like a toasted sandwich. I loved how the flavors of the toasted roll, Mississippi chicken, tomato and French fried onions all come together to give you an amazing sandwich.

Mississippi Crock Pot Chicken Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 2 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs (or breasts cut into thigh size pieces)
- 1 packet powdered ranch dip mix
- 1 packet powdered brown gravy mix
- 1/2 cup stick butter plus more for sub rolls
- 6 pepperoncini
- French Fried Onions
- 1 large tomato sliced
- 6 sub rolls
Instructions
- Place chicken in a 4 quart slow cooker.
- Sprinkle mixes on top.
- Place butter on top and pepperoncini around the chicken.
- ย Cook on low for 4-5 hours or 2-2.5 hours on high, until easily shredded with 2 forks.
- Shred with forks or a stand mixer and return to crock pot.

- If desired, slice pepperonciniย and place on top of the chicken.
- Top sandwiches with french fried onions and top sub roll. Slice sandwiches in half before serving if desired.
Notes
- The chicken is very juicy, so toasting the rolls help keep the bun from getting too soggy. This is however a very messy sandwich to eat (although very rewarding for the trouble!).
