Great recipe - have never made pulled chicken before. I omitted the cheese and used a whole wheat bun and it was delicious! - 2/16/10

I didn't put cheese, and I opted for a whole grain bun instead of the keiser roll, but man the smell this made in my house while it was cooking was awesome. I thought it was yummy, and so did the 2 year old. Husband will eat l8r so i'll have to get his take. Thank you - 6/30/09

Out of the 5 SparkPeople recipes I've made so far, this was hands down my favorite. I made the sandwiches for dinner tonight and my daughter and I both LOVED them. I did deviate a little from the cooking directions [& left off the cheese] but this had no affect on the taste at all.Simple yet delish! - 4/10/09
