Instant Pot Pulled BBQ Chicken (no sugar, keto option)

By

"Lacking a smoker, some hickory wood, and a hot summer day, this BBQ scratches the itch. Unlike Texas BBQ, however, it has no added sugar -- so it's low-carb and friendly on your blood sugar (assuming you don't put it on a white bread bun, obs)." Author Lindsey Dietz
