You can make this instant pot shredded chicken ahead of time, store it in the fridge or freezer, and have pre-cooked meat on hand!

Then by the time I’ve thawed it, I’ve forgotten about it again, and the chicken ends up rotten in the garbage. Can you make this in the crockpot? HIGH for 4 hours or on LOW for 8 hours in your slow cooker. You need to thaw chicken before cooking it in the crockpot because, according to the USDA, you’re not supposed to cook frozen chicken in the crockpot for food safety reasons. The slow cooker can take hours to reach a hot enough temperature to kill bacteria. Because of this, I do HIGHLY recommend getting an instant pot if you can.
