- For extra smokiness, you can add a dash of liquid smoke to the barb sauce.
- If you don't have a grill, you can cook the chicken on a stovetop grill pan or in the oven.
- Customize your sandwich by adding your favorite toppings, such as avocado, bacon, or cheese.
- Make a double batch of barb sauce and use it as a marinade for other meats or as a dipping sauce.
- Leftover chicken can be refrigerated and used in salads or wraps the next day.
