sloppy joes, beef and chicken

I know how's you'se kids likes 'em sloppy!!!
Chicken Sloppy Joes, for when you've planned ahead.
 Start with bag of chicken breasts... 
List of ingredients to add is short, and sweet:
1/4 c vinegar
1/4 c brown sugar
sm bottle bbq sauce, prefer baby ray's, use what you like
Pinch red pepper flakes, I used Penzey's black and red pepper to add a zing.
Mix together in bowl, pour over chicken breasts
Set for 5 hours on low... I want these fork tender and easily shredded
Pick a vegetable, apply heat
 Cut into bite-sized pieces, micro for @6 mins; add cheese and nuke for 30 seconds longer
 Shred chicken and add sauce from crockpot
Sorry for the pic quality on this one... I'm pretty sure the lights in the kitchen were on... I typically don't cook in the dark.

Beef Sloppy Joes, for when you didn't plan ahead.
Oh yeah... dinner... hello ground beef... did the penguin send you?

 Brown ground beef, stir/chop using a spatula
 Add sprinkle of garlic and onion powders, stir in bottle of bbq sauce, again SBR's.
 More cauli and some tater tots....
Beef or Chicken... they get scarfed up like 30 sack lunches on a field trip.
