Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breasts boneless, skinless
  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes less or more to taste
  • 2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon ground mustard
  • slider buns

Instructions

  • Add the boneless and skinless chicken breasts into the liner of the Instant Pot.
  • Combine the vinegars, sugar, Worchestershire sauce, mustard, and the spices together and pour them on top of the chicken.
  • Close the lid and set the Instant Pot to the MANUAL/PRESSURE COOK setting and cook for 10 minutes.
  • Allow the pot to naturally release pressure for 10 minutes before removing the lid.
  • Use a handheld mixer to shred the chicken. There will be liquid in the pot but the chicken will soak most of it back up.
  • When serving, serve with a slotted spoon or tongs.
  • Serve with caramelized onions, pickles, or other desired toppings on buns.
