For a richer flavor, consider searing the chicken thighs in a hot skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. This will add a beautiful caramelized crust. Feel free to adjust the amount of hot sauce to suit your spice preference. A pinch of smoked paprika can also enhance the smoky BBQ flavor. Serve the shredded BBQ chicken on slider buns, over rice, or alongside your favorite Southern-style sides like coleslaw and cornbread. If you don't have Creole mustard, Dijon mustard can be used as a substitute.
