BBQ chicken sandwich + buttermilk slaw

easy. messy. tasty. man-pleasin'. and woman pleasin', too. brandon told me he loved me several times while eating this sandwich. he may have even yelped. (from cook's country)

4 chicken breasts (1.5 lbs)
salt & pepper
3 TB unsalted butter
3/4 C BBQ sauce
1/2 C plus 1 TB cider vinegar
1 TB hot sauce
1/2 C mayonnaise
1/2 C buttermilk
1 (16 oz) bag coleslaw mix
hamburger buns

melt butter in large skillet over med-high. salt & pepper chicken breasts and add to skillet. cook until lightly browned. stir in BBQ sauce, 1/2 C vinegar, and hot sauce. bring to boil. reduce heat to med-low and simmer, covered, until chicken is cooked through (flip halfway through). transfer chicken to a plate, tent with foil to keep warm simmer sauce until thickened.

whisk mayo, buttermilk, 1 TB vinegar in bowl. add coleslaw and mix to combine. season with s & p.

shred chicken and add back to skillet, toss with the sauce. serve on buns topped with coleslaw.

Will do. What brand of BBQ sauce did you use?

I used Jack Daniels original, which is fine but not my favorite. Typically I/we use Bulls Eye. Just use whatever brand you guys like!
