Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by greasing your slow cooker with a light coat of cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Place your boneless, skinless chicken thighs into the greased slow cooker in a single layer.
  3. Generously sprinkle smoked paprika, garlic powder, and kosher salt over the chicken thighs.
  4. Pour about 1/3 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce over the seasoned chicken thighs.
  5. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 4-5 hours.
  6. Once the chicken has cooked thoroughly and is tender, preheat your oven’s broiler.
  7. Carefully transfer the chicken thighs to a foil-lined broiler-safe pan.
  8. Broil the chicken thighs for 3-4 minutes, keeping a close eye on them to prevent burning.
