			CHICKEN:

- 2 Tb butter
 
- 1/4 C flour
 
- 2 C pineapple juice
 
- 1 C brown sugar
 
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
 
- 3/4 C ketchup

- 1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
 
- 1 tsp salt
 
- 1/2 tsp pepper
 
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
 
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger

COLE SLAW:
- 1 1/3 C mayonnaise (I used Best Foods Light)
 
- 1/4 C apple cider vinegar
 
- 1/3 C sugar
 
- 1/2 tsp ground mustard
 
- 1/4 tsp onion powder

- In a large deep skillet, melt the butter. Add the onions and cook until translucent. In a separate bowl whisk together the pineapple juice, brown sugar, garlic, ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, onion powder, and ginger.
 
- To the skillet, add the flour and stir it in. Add the pineapple juice mixture to the skillet and stir. Allow it to come to a simmer while stirring and cook it for 5 minutes.
 
- Place the chicken in a 3-4 quart crock pot. Pour the sauce over the top. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
 
- Remove the chicken from the crock pot and shred with two forks. Add it back to the crock pot and allow it to cook for another 30 minutes.
 
- To make the coleslaw, stir together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, ground mustard, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Pour it over the coleslaw mix and stir to combine.
 
- Serve the chicken, topped with coleslaw on a nice roll.
