1/4 cup Minerva Dairy Sea Salt Butter
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

Cooking Steps
In the slow cooker, measure in the chicken stock, melted butter, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, soy sauce, hot sauce, dijon mustard, onion and garlic powders and salt. Whisk.
Nestle the chicken into the sauce, and cook on low for 6-7 hours.
When done cooking, shred chicken.
Empty the slaw into a large bowl. In a small bowl combine the Greek yogurt, honey, mustard, BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar and celery seed. Whisk until smooth. Toss the mustard mixture into the coleslaw with tongs.
Brush the buns with extra butter and toast on a griddle.
Put together the sandwiches and enjoy warm.
